opening, gap

Comment: "Hartelijk dank hiervoor. Ik heb uiteindelijk ook nog een vriend mij geraadpleegd die architect is en met het volgende antwoord kwam:
"opening" of "cut-away",
maar misschien beter nog "leave blanks" of "leave blank spaces".

e.g. \"The log parts come in various multiples of a standard unit length, with indents every unit to fit against logs crossing at right angles above and below. The sets include very short pieces just long enough to take one indent, thereby allowing spaces for windows and doors to be left in the walls\"
