Spanish term or phrase: Altura forjado-forjado
Formación de faja perimetral de pladur para encuentro entre falso techo reticular y paramentos de la sala técnica (que tienen altura forjado-forjado).

There is also a similar term used througout the text: "Altura forjado-falso techo" - perhaps useful for comparison alongside "Altura forjado-forjado"?

Many thanks,

Explanation:
Entiendo que la distancia entre forjados es la distancia entre plantas, pero si no es así espero que al menos te sirva como primera idea.

Saludos!

slab-to-slab clearance


Explanation:
Se trata de la altura libre en obra rústica, entre el fondo de un forjado y la cara superior del que está debajo.
http://www.111eighth.com/general.htm - da un ejemplo; y lo compara con "ceiling height", que a veces puede confundir (pues por lo general, un "ceiling" es un elemento constructivo agregado en yeso o similar).

altura forjado-falso techo sería "floor-to-ceiling height", http://standards.emporis.com/?nav=realestate&lng=3&esn=48049

En este caso, se desaconseja "floor-to-floor height", pues lo utilizan para la altura "entre un piso y otro".
