HI,
Hope someone can help with this one:
Se trata de una sala diáfana, cubierta con una armadura de madera a cuatro aguas con limas mohamares, "cuadrales" en los ángulos y almizate plano.
I know what they are ("Madero que atraviesa oblicuamente de una carrera a otra en los ángulos entrants."), but not what they are called in English. "corner ties"?
TIA
