Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering | | Spanish term or phrase: de fábrica | Otro uso de fábrica que no entiendo... Aquí el texto:
o sobre la pared interior de fábrica.
Es un texto sobre fachadas y las presiones del viento "sobre la pared interior de fábrica." Pensé que podía ser 'by default' pero no me pega... por otra parte encontré este texto en http://www.construmatica.com/construpedia/Fachadas_de_F%C3%A...
Las Fachadas de Fábrica para Revestir son los muros exteriores ejecutados con materiales cerámicos que no requieren la calidad de aquellas que van vistas, y en estos casos ya no existe la preocupación por las juntas y la limpieza de los paramentos.
y sigo sin estar segura de cómo traducir 'de fábrica.'
Como de costumbre, a todos ustedes héroes de la traducción, mis gracias por anticipado y una buena copa de vino virtual, con o sin fromage. |
| | Clarification request(s) and responsepsicutrinius: 2:45am May 18, 2007: As Cindy says, it is the same as before: "... de fábrica para revestir" means "brickwork to be covered". The bricks being under a layer of mortar, the joints need not be as neat as when they are "al aire".
silviantonia: 3:07am May 18, 2007: Thank you all! - Can't stay long, long translation to finish by Sunday evening, I am very grateful to each and every one of you for your gallant efforts, as Pedro Vargas used to say when he would come out on stage at the end of a performance, bending from his considerable height, Muy agradecido, muy agradecido, muy agradecido, although I will say the same with agradecida. Virtual besos y abrazos to all! And Cindy, once again, I owe you!

| Note from asker to answererWell, I am glad I didn't close the question earlier, Cindy... this is exactly what I needed, and I didn't see the box with tipos de fachada.. what I saw is that it needed to be updated! One gets too tired to read after a while...
THANK YOU, mil gracias, merci beaucoup and you can have a chilled glass of virtual Veuve Cliquot, if you like that... :)

Explanation:
I happen to know that it means "gemauert" in German but there is no such clear expression (or so it seems) in English. Perhaps this helps a little.
By the way, I´ll have the wine but will do without cheese (as I do not like it).

| prefabricated
Explanation:
I really don't know, but here is a description of a prefab wall, which sounds similar to the info in the link you posted:
Prefab walls are often made of sandwich construction: outside corrugated sheets, an inside liner of flat or corrugated sheet, and an enclosed insulation are fastened together by screws to form a thin, effective sandwich wall. These usually have tongue-and-groove vertical edges to permit sealed joints when the units are erected at the building site by being fastened to framing girts.

| masonry/brickwork
Explanation:
It's the same as your other question, really--since it says "materiales cerámicos" it refers to brick rather than stone. Have a look at this D.R.A.E. definition for "fábrica":
4. f. Construcción o parte de ella hecha con piedra o ladrillo y argamasa. Rellenar los huecos del entramado con fábrica. ***Una pared de fábrica.***
http://buscon.rae.es/draeI/SrvltConsulta?TIPO_BUS=3&LEMA=fáb...
English definition:
ma·son·ry (mā'sən-rē) Pronunciation Key
n. pl. ma·son·ries
The trade of a mason.
Work done by a mason.
***Stonework or brickwork.***
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/masonry
Refs. for "ladrillos cerámicos":
http://www.google.es/search?hl=en&q=%22ladrillos+cer%C3%A1mi...
Actually, if you look at the link you posted, you can see (right below your text) a box with "Tipos de Fachadas de Fábrica para Revestir"--and the first one shows "ladrillos de cerámica".
