Explanation:
It's really hard to tell without more context here, but this may help: fábrica here refers to brickwork or masonry (judging by your other questions), and as far as the "abultado" part is concerned, Nikki Graham answered a question a couple months ago explaining that it meant "textured" if it referred to the enfoscado (rendering--"to render" meaning to coat brick with plaster or cement, according to the dictionary). If your text isn't about the "enfoscado" part of the work, then I'd say it might mean thicker or wider areas of the brickwork. Can't tell you much more without further info.
