Portuguese term

gesso cartonado

Portuguese to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
Dear Colleagues: I am translating the specifications for an electrical control room for a refinery in Portugal. The specifications for the ceiling read as follows: "O tecto falso em gesso cartonado com 12mm de espessura mínima..." Does this refer to the pre-cut panels used in dropped ceilings?

Thanks in advance,

Douglas
