The total door + window area is greater than the base surface area (by almost 20 sq meters). If the excess fenestration area were small, I would recommend that the total fenestration dimensions are at least 1 mm less than the base surface. However, since the negative area is almost 20 sq meters, I'd say that there is an error in the dimensions that is not apparent when viewing the 3-D geometry. Do not use the graphical view to determine the geometry. Instead use the Surface Details Report to view the geometry.
