Italian term or phrase: Passo d'orditura

Hi, I need the translation of "passo d'orditura" referring to a roof.
I know "orditura" should be "roof frame" or "roof scaffolding".

This is the context: "Il passo di orditura della struttura leggera del tetto è la misura tra un listello orizzontale e il successivo. Questa quota è consigliata dei produttori di tegole e dipende dalla forma delle stesse e dall’inclinazione del tetto"
