Im eurocode 2004 they permit ignoring openings in walls with area smaller than one tenth the total area of the wall in design and buckling checking.(12.6.5)
My question is:when we have many openings in the wall to be ignored.should each opening area be less than 10% the total area of the wall(without the openings)or should the sum of openings areas be less than 10% the total area of the wall(without the openings)?
