Tengo un blank, un lío de diccionarios alrededor y un deadline en un ratito.
"Para la construcción de la Central Hidroeléctrica de Yaciretá, los vertederos y la esclusa de navegación, el volumen de excavación en tierra fue de 22,70 millones de metros cúbicos, y en roca de 4,17 millones de metros cúbicos."
De todo lo que hay para esclusa, ¿qué es lo mejor acá?
¡Gracias!
Andrea

Just to confirm. I lived 8 years in Panama, where ships are lifted up onto Gatun Lake, cross the isthmus, and then are lowered through exclusas, locks.
