Spanish term or phrase:terciado marino
Hi All,
This is for the CV of an artist and I haven't the slightest clue. The context is:
DISEÑO Y REALIZACION DE ESCULTURA/MAPA MURAL DEL CONTINENTE AMERICANO Y HORIZONTES CULTURALES AMERICANOS. _PLACAS DE ALUMINIO TEXTURADO, TERCIADO MARINO_. MUSEO CHILENO DE ARTE PRECOLOMBINO. SANTIAGO. 1981.

Thank you for your understanding. I spent three years working as a translator in a Fine Arts museum and I have since remained passionate about works of art and their specific components. "Marino" was my main concern here... Cheers
Hi
Thank you for your response Elizabeth.
I had myself suggested "marine plywood" at 18 minutes:) as "even better" and as long as the glossary is correct, then I think everything is fine and we can move on.
Technically speaking it would seem I should have awarded the points to you and "marine plywood" is the most correct response. I see that Liz Askew put it into the glossary. I was in a huge rush and stressed out, was looking for the term and came across the image (http://www.google.cl/images?hl=es&source=imghp&biw=1280&bih=... and went for it. It is a resume, a very long and convoluted one, not for construction specs, and though I know this is not an excuse, sometimes because of extraneous factors slipups like this occur. I also have submitted correct answers that were overlooked and the points went to someone else. And I know this is not your main concern either. What can I say except thank you for your rigorousness.
If I understand you well, you are telling us that the word "marino" was there for no reason at all. It happens to be different and quite usual where I come from. No offense meant here. Maybe just shere frustration.

Marine plywood
Explanation: "El contrachapado, multilaminado o madera terciada es un tablero elaborado con finas chapas de madera pegadas con las fibras transversalmente una sobre la otra con resinas sintéticas mediante fuerte presión y calor. Esta técnica mejora notablemente la estabilidad dimensional del tablero obtenido respecto de madera maciza."
"Los tableros son placas de madera contrachapada con propiedades mecánicas imposibles de obtener en piezas de madera natural."

Thank you! There is a picture of this material in Sodimac Chile -- it's plywood plain and simple. ;)
Este tablero es especial para aquellos usos que deban soportar continuamente la acción del agua, por ejemplo, embarcaciones, viviendas, moldajes para obras gruesas y estructuras de techo.
