ties

A "tie" is a structural element that carries a tensile load.

"riostra" can be translated as bracing, which fits with the above.

Do not bother with inserting "atado" (tied) into translation; it is unnecessary repetition.

I have used these terms as a structural engineer.

I recommend you have a look at the following (excellent) dictionary:

SAE Glossary of Automotive Terms SP-436

It is available from GRANT & CUTLER via their website.
