frame slab Explanation: I would use something like frame slab to translate "planta marco" in this very specific context. Tafalla's velodrome is a very unique engineering project. It is well known among the engineering professionals in Spain, and its designer is a reknown structural engineer. The concept of "planta marco" is somehow specific to the design, and you probably won't find many references about it. It refers to the concrete slab, in the shape of a frame (think painting frame), that covers the swimming pool area and also, partially, the seating area of the velodrome. An arched roof covers the "opening" of this frame, as you can see in the pictures in these references: http://www.apartamentostafalla.com/index.php/velodromo-de-ta... http://www.mcrit.com/B0F80787-C870-422E-B65E-F077A20323A0/Fi... (page 35) Of course the wording in english is open to opinion. I believe that "frame slab" translates quite well the concept, but there may be other (better) options. P.S./ I am assuming this is about Tafalla's velodrome, by the description given in the context. If by any chance it isn't, the meaning of the term could be somehow different. |
