Spanish term
cara de cercos
Spanish to English
Tech/Engineering
Construction / Civil Engineering
La frase entera es " El recubrimiento nominal de las armaduras debe ser igual o superior a 45 mm, siendo el recubrimiento igual a la distancia entre cara de cercos y superficie del hormigón" y estamos hablando de pilotes de hormigón armado. Creo que entiendo el concepto pero no encuentro una traducción que me satisfaga.
Muchas gracias a todos.

Yes, Sergio says he would go with "surface", and he's a Civil Engineer.

Note from asker:
Strirrup or truss? According to the description given to me by the engineer it is obviously refers to the minimum concrete coverage for something and if Sergio says strirrup, who am I to disagree? However, I am still a bit doubtful. Thank you for your help |
Peer comment(s):
agree |
Sergio Campo
: Cerco=estribo=stirrup. I would go with surface. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cover

Thank you, Sergio. Admittedly, this is not my specialty, but I see you're a Civil Engineer, so that's encouraging, too! :)

Note from asker:
You are obviously right that this refers to the minimum concrete coverag for something but, in the light of the discription given to me by the engineer, I am still a bit doubtful. What do you think? Your help is most appreciated. |
Thank you for all your help. After your last comment I have decided to select Kenneth's answer. Best regards from Cadiz. |

El cerco es un anillo que rodea el pilote (cuando es una columna el cerco es cuadrado y cuando es un pilote circular es un anillo). Lo que quiere decir aquí es que el recubrimiento de hormigón tiene que cubrir el cerco (para que no quede a la vista) y sobrepasarlo 4.5 cm por cada lado.
What do you think?
