Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering
English term or phrase: peg
Il s'agit de la reconstruction d'une grange :

We assembled the bents, which are structural cross sections of the barn, on the ground,” he said. “Long ago, 50 or 60 people from the community would come together to raise these barn sections, but today we use cranes.”
Once in place, workers secured one timber to the next using a *peg*, staying true to historic construction techniques.
