Here's a link to a public beta build:

Note this includes an updated build of Workshop Framework. After updating both mods by overwriting what you have with these files, load into your game, wait a few minutes and then attempt to repeat whatever you were struggling with.
Please let me know if this resolves any issues for you!
Good Morning! (It is early morning over here, I just got up, grabbed myself a coffee and...)
... just finished some tests with the beta build. Looking good!
In more detail: First I picked up my formerly broken minimal loadorder test game save (started with 1.0.0e), the missing residential plot category got added into the build menu within seconds, and Laying Foundations continued normally from there. So, successful fix there.
On the other hand I noticed that the Fallrim Tools warning about potential problems, which had gotten baked into this save file with 1.0.0e, still remained after the update to the public beta (something to do with Pra's addon, I already contacted him about this). This particular issue so far had only shown up for me with saves made with 1.0.0e, not with any other version's saves.
So I went ahead and started another fresh game with the public beta build, played it up to the same point in the quest, and voilà - no warnings or errors in the save file. Same result with picking up a clean save file made with 1.0.0d, updating straight to the beta build and skipping 1.0.0e.
My (mostly uneducated) guess is, the public beta build definitely fixes things which seemed to be broken (for some people, at least) with 1.0.0e. Only downside seems to be, save files made with 1.0.0e might contain some potential problems as identified by Fallrim Tools, which might or might not lead to issues later on.
In conclusion, to be on the safe side, I'd recommend starting a new game with 1.0.0f as soon as it is released, or continuing with a game started with earlier versions but never saved with 1.0.0e. At least that's what I'll be doing...
(I'm kind of particular about that, religiously checking my save files with Fallrim Tools for any serious playthrough and immediately rolling back as soon as I get warnings, because in my personal experience things can break pretty randomly in FO4...)
Next I will fire up my full modlist with the beta build and start a new playthrough, taking my time and fully enjoying all the great content of this fantastic mod in all it's detail, something I intended to do from the start, since I kind of impatiently rushed through the content the first time through and therefor surely missed a lot of great stuff...
Thank you again,
@kinggath and the whole team, for all the hard work and the continuing efforts you put in, you guys and girls are the best!
In a perfect world YOU people would be the ones making Fallout 5...
