lathwork

In the old city centre of Seixal, the wood arose for structural use--not only for floor structures but also in the masonry walls, internal partition walls and staircases and foundations (woodpiles)--and also in a nonstructural way--in coverings (floors and lathwork) and in the span linings and frames.

"Lathwork over a patio can provide this type of shade" Sometimes these areas receive morning sun, but the plants are protected from the intense afternoon sun.

The igneous textures recognized in thin sections include lathwork, microlithic, cryptocrystalline, felsitic, and vitric types.
