Lots of windows fit into our South wall. The smaller holes are for insulation. And lots of LVL (linear veneer lumber , ie engineered lumber) to hold our wall in place through most any storm. It's a long span, 20 ft high in the middle, with no second floor supports, so we are thankful to Tom and John, the engineers that designed this a very sturdy wall. And thanks to the carpenters for enthusiastically building it to specifications. It is made to withstand winds so that it won't blow in or out in hurricane-force winds.
