I can confirm there is a bug in the BEopt v3 beta release for pier & beam foundations. We have a pending bugfix for this issue; can you see if this bugfix version fixes it? You can install over your current BEopt, no need to uninstall first.

That seemed to work! Thanks for the quick response and resolution. I'll continue with my testing now.
