I don't see any piers in either image.  Can you show a 3d view to understand where they are?

Attach their base to the foundation.  If it doesn't work, share the model.

Edit.. never mind previous reply. I just saw the images now

 

  • Can you open the plan view >>> edit type and show an image of that?
  • Are the foundations and piers attached?

Joining the pier to the foundation pad seemed to solve it. The hatch is a bit funny but I can live with that.

Thanks!

The diagonal cross hatch is the CMU material cut pattern.  What would you like the hatch to be, or no hatch at all?
