I would do it as an in-place family. If you want glass in the "void"areas, just add a glass solid rectangle as part of the family.

If the goal is to be rendered, I would make a material map with cutouts. This will achieve exactly what you have shown in render but not in shaded views.

 

If you need the geometry to be like this, you may want to head over to buildz.blospot.com and learn a lil about adaptive components to try to make this process a bit faster than the in-place comopnent method.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!

I agree with Carl to go with adaptive Component with conceptual mass method.

It will be a much more flexible way to deal with if you decided to change your design later.

But the catch is to understand how adaptive component works first so you will know how to make one for yourself.
