S'chach from Perforated Beams

Question

Wooden beams (laths) that have a small non-penetrating hole made in them to insert a wooden dowel to connect the boards, does this cause the wood to be considered a vessel that can receive impurity?

Answer

Shalom Rav

Such a hole does not render the wood a vessel.
