Rhona Desmond (asker) Feb 26, 2009:
degraus exteriores em granito e tranqueiros That's for your query Gilmar. I read the article you posted and see how the context shifts. However, in the context above I think it must be some kind of material along with granite as supposed to some kind of support. I'm sorry I can't be any more clearer as I am not overly familiar with the subject matter or terminology in English!
Gilmar Fernandes Feb 26, 2009:
