Spanish term

certificado de ejecución y replanteo

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
xxx entrega a yyy certificado de ejecución y replanteo de pilares de la Losa del Edificio de Producción la próxima semana se entregará plano correspondiente a dicho cettificado.

This appears in the minutes for a meeting regarding a construction project. In many cases (like this one), punctuation is lacking somewhat and spelling is a little off.

I don't understand the meaning here - is it a certificate? A plan?

Spanish from Spain for UK English.

Thanks in advance.

certificate of completion and variation order

First of all, I do not think this is one concept, i.e. just one certificate. ejecución could imply completion, but I get the impression from your context that the work has not been done yet, so it could be a certificate of implementation. Otherwise, it could be a certificate of completion.

For replanteo, please see a previous answer I gave. I expect this is a variation or change order
Peer comment(s):

agree Silvia Brandon-Pérez : Agree completely; it is a cerficate of completion and replanteo refers to variation orders, common in construction, and necessary to ensure payment for those variations from the original contract.

execution/carrying out certificate and pillar resetting

No es el plan, ya que adelante se precisa que el plan correspondiente a dicho certificado se entregará la próxima semana.

I used certificate but then again it even may be a DRAFT in the sense of a representation of something to be constructed.

Hope it helps. Good luck !
