cross section plan, section plan

In English one would say "cross section plan", or simply "section plan", which represents a vertical plane cut through the object, in the same way as a floor plan is a horizontal section viewed from the top.

Thank you Edward
neutral Joao Marcelo Trovao : Hi Kevin. I agree with what you said about 'cross section plan' but isn't a 'planta' always a top view, I mean, with horizontal sections? What do you think?

Thanks for you comments João. You are right in that "planta" is generally the top view. The use of the term "planta de cortes" is confusing as "cortes" normally refer to vertical sections but maybe in this case the sections were horizonal. Over to you!
neutral kashew : cross section(s) is enough - add drawing(s) but not plan.
