Spanish term
cabreada de un rancho
Spanish to English
Other
Architecture
rural Argentina
This is actually a description of an installation by an Argentine artist where paintings on corrugated tin rest on a wooden structure. Rancho in Argentina often means a primitive farm house, but here maybe it has to do with corrals. The sentence reads:
Los jardines de mi reina (2018) es la representación de un jardín barroco francés realizada con esmalte sintético sobre chapa acanalada de zinc, montada a su vez sobre una estructura de carpintería muy similar a la cabreada de un rancho. El habitáculo es uno de los temas que ronda el trabajo del artista que si hasta ahora venía poniendo el acento en los males del hacinamiento, en algo parece haber cambiado.
Thanks

a farmhouse/barn roof joist
This Mercadolibre listing shows various types of "cabreadas" made of metal. Presumably wooden ones exist too.
https://listado.mercadolibre.com.ar/herramientas-y-construcc...
Not sure exactly what they'd be called, but here's an idea:
Roof joists
are found on low-slope roofs (slope of 2 in 12 or less). Their functions are similar to rafters. Roof joists may span continuously from one side of the house to another or may be supported on an interior bearing wall. They may carry ceiling loads.
https://www.shopyourway.com/questions/1005697
I believe the metal ones referred to in the Mercadolibre listings above are known as "open web steel joists":
In structural engineering, the open web steel joist (OWSJ) is a lightweight steel truss consisting, in the standard form, of parallel chords and a triangulated web system, proportioned to span between bearing points.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_web_steel_joist
I suppose "farmhouse" or "barn" might be the idea here for "de un rancho".

framework of a small, rural building
'Cabreadas' are beams, but cabreada de xxxx appears to be framework.
In fact, Phil's ref is entitled 'cabreada de madera' and has ilustrations of various types of framing.
This ref shows 'cabreada de metal'. As ccan be seen, most of the photos are of building framework.

I think the first picture is the work referred to, or another in the same series. The wooden structures don't remind me of anything in particular.

: We arrived at this by different means, but I think your idea of the generic "roof frame" is probably the way to go.
