calle y cuerda

Spanish to English Other Architecture calle y cuerda
hello again,


can i translate calle y cuerda as a figure 8: the context is - Las naves laterales y el sotacoro, están cubiertos por alfarjes, siempre construidos con escayola y donde las vigas están dispuestas a “calle y cuerda”.

its the same context as my previous post.


thanking you again

Exactly - or in church speak crypt!
philgoddard Sep 9, 2018:
That would mean the "subchoir" was in the basement. However, we can discuss that in the asker's other question.
Wendy Streitparth Sep 9, 2018:
Beg to differ, Phil. The choir loft is above the choir, which is in turn above the sub-choir.
philgoddard Sep 9, 2018:

Sotacoro/sotocoro is the area below the choir loft.
