Art/Literary - Archäologie / Mexico | | Spanisch Begriff oder Satz: bóveda en saledizo | bóveda en voladizo = corbelled arch, but what is this?
Amplios recintos cuya edificación debió ser planeada varios años antes del deceso de los ocupantes. Aunque de mejor factura que las anteriores, siguen el mismo sistema constructivo de ***bóveda en saledizo*** y mampostería burda con aplanados de lodo. Estas cámaras corresponden al Clásico temprano.
Thanks! |
| | Notiz(en) an den/des Fragesteller(s)aceavila - Noni: 7:47am Aug 22, 2007: Isn't it vault rather than arch? Referring to the way the ceiling is constructed. There's quite a clear article on corbelling here: www.pierreseche.com/los_bombos.htm
Patricia Rosas: 2:44pm Aug 22, 2007: Hi, Noni! I generally translate the term as a "vault" but it seems to also be translated as "arch" (about the same # of hits for each in 'corbel arch' or 'cobel vault'), and that would be the case here since it's a chamber, but what I need the shape of the arch that forms the vault. I looked at your link, but do you think that "saledizo" is just one kind of corbel construction? I thought it might be something else ... Thanks!
