Spanish term or phrase: (madera) rasgada
"El revestimiento de las secciones superpuestas se realizara a traves de una serie de costillas apoyadas sobre montantes, todos ellos de madera de pino, para los cuales se debera prever una plantilla ajustada a las geometrias definidas. El revestimiento de las mismas se realizara mediante lamina de melamina o de madera ligera **rasgada** en uno de los frentes para permitir su adecuacion a las formas planteadas."

I just don't get the picture here - These (the ribs?) will be covered with a sheet of melamine or light wood "rasgada" at one of the ends so that it can be adapted to the proposed shapes??

Clarification request(s) and response
BelkisDV: 3:31pm Dec 6, 2005: "Ribs" is not the correct translation in this context. You have to picture a fence with overlapping posts, a structure similar to the ribs in the human body. -
Chelin: 3:35pm Dec 6, 2005: la lámina de revestimiento tendrá tajos no muy profundos por el revés que le darán mayor flexibilidad para curvarse sobre la estructura que cubrirá -
