Spanish to English translations [PRO] Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / construction | | Spanish term or phrase: (vigas riostras) de atado | | - Cimentación de zapatas y vigas riostras de atado, de canto y armadura especificados en los cálculos de estructura facilitados. |
| | | ties | Explanation: A "tie" is a structural element that carries a tensile load.
"riostra" can be translated as bracing, which fits with the above.
Do not bother with inserting "atado" (tied) into translation; it is unnecessary repetition.
I have used these terms as a structural engineer.
I recommend you have a look at the following (excellent) dictionary:
SAE Glossary of Automotive Terms SP-436
It is available from GRANT & CUTLER via their website.
