Spanish term or phrase: armado
Buenos días,

Espero que puedan ayudarme con una expresión al inglés: “armado”, relacionada con gaviones para la construcción. Muchas gracias:

“RESULTADOS: Los gaviones se hallan apilados y tiene deformaciones de atirantamiento durante el armado, teniendo la abertura de la malla en forma horizontal con medidas de 14x11 cm.

Según la inspección visual, se indica que el material para gaviones es no conforme, por la presencia de deformaciones excediendo el límite permitido.”

this is a very technical text so wait and see if you get an engineer to provide more technical know-how

agree  neilmac: It's about reinforcing concrete ("hormigon armado"), so "mounting" (or similar) could work.

Explanation:
The source text appears to be about concrete reinforcement, and in particular the metallic mesh cages/baskets Juan refers to (gabiones, with a "b").
I see "durante el armado" as referring to "when the reinforcement work is being done" - the mesh becomes stretched and deformed when working.
