Grasshopper - Archicad cooperation - outlines of Archicad beams

Dear Forum Members,
I’m new to Grasshopper and I’m stuck on a problem with connecting the outlines of beams (representing foundation walls) that I’ve imported from Archicad. I want to connect these outlines so that the edges of two beams don’t overlap. I also need to offset the perimeter of the connected beams so I can extrude them and create lean concrete underneath. I tried the same process with slabs and encountered a similar problem. The issue I’m having is shown in the screenshots. I attach also the .pln, .gh and Rhino files. You can download all files here: https://we.tl/t-poiYKYFGr3. | will be very grateful for any hint on how to get around this problem!
