Foundation problem: Wall radius is too small

I am creating a foundation under a wall with round corners like this:

When I try to add a foundation under the round corner I get this warning:

Question: How do I get the corners to display correctly?

I can not change the radius without getting some harsh comments from the architect 😉

I would suggest creating an "in-place" wall for the corners.  Use the "Component" tool to create these.  Create the wall with the same material and then join the geometry with other foundation walls to clean it up.  Nobody will ever know the difference.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, but never got it to work. Things just do not display correctly.

Can´t get the cut material to display correctly, the automatic joining of the foundations result in strange shapes and when I try to join the existing foundations with the in-place-wall, nothing happens.

 

However I almost got it by disallowing walls to join and create a new foundation type just for the corner.

That leaves one unwanted line only, and I can live with that for now.

Add foundation walls only to the straight wallsfoundwall.jpg. Let them cross. Make a void or two and remove extra parts. Is there some reason for having a curved foundation surface?

Yes I think that must be the best solution.
