The user should refer to Window and Door Penetrations - Room Design Administrator Guide to learn how penetrating components are defined, however, the basic principle behind these is that the component not only defines its geometric representation but also defines any hole shapes that would cut through a wall that is penetrated by it. If a component has been defined with a hole shape then it will automatically cut out the hole from the wall or wall panels that it passes through when created.
