Spanish term

descargue de contenedores y armada de caseta

Spanish to English Other Finance (general) cost sheet
This is on a cost sheet of a company buying construction equipment and this is the phrase under it
"descargue de contenedores y armada de caseta"

I know the first part is unloading containers, but I am confused about the second part of the phrase

maybe placing them in a shed?

later on in the document, they discuss purchasing screw for the shed

I'm sorry it should be purchasing screw[s] for the shed...but I am confused on how they are using armada
Taña Dalglish Mar 3, 2017:
@ Amanda Can you give us complete sentences, please. When you say "purchasing screw...", one screw? It would help us all to see the full context in the original language. Thanks.

containers unload and shed assembly

Just a guess here. Doesn't sound good (to me) in Spanish. 'Descarga de contenedores' would make more sense. In that sense, maybe 'armada' was meant to be something else, like 'armado'.

Hope I helped.

agree bigedsenior : container unloading and shed assembly. 'container' should be singular.
