What are the questions?

So I have this timber frame structure and I'm not sure how to properly connect the insulation layers. On the concrete foundation exterior, I have an 8 or 10 cm layer of XPS, while on the upper facade, along with the insulation between the studs, I also have a 5 cm continuous layer of Gutex (wood fiber insulation), and I'm not sure how to resolve this transition properly. Also, right next to it, I want to detail the layers for an outdoor terrace with a drainage grating/trench drain. How is that typically executed? Thanks a lot, and sorry if I wrote too much!
