Wil Hardman (X) (asker) Jun 1, 2009:
I should have included the next line too:

El interior aparece como una gran sala donde la iluminación cenital adquiere gran importancia.

I initiall thought it was refering to the sports hall but was then put off because of 'interior aparece como una gran sala', but now I realise the repetition of hall would be in English, not Spanish.

Nikki one of the references you included has interestingly been translated into Spanish, although I think it was in English originally:

Still to me, the use of box does sound slightly strange.

sports hall box

I think it is referring specifically in your context to the sports hall itself, which is box-shaped, and, as you can hopefully glean from one of the refs provided, the composite panels can actually be used for floors, walls and ceilings with some slight alterations.

If you don't like box on its own, you could perhaps say box- shaped and play about with the sentence structure so as not to repeat hall.

sports floor / auditorium

As it is made of sandwiched panelling I can only think that it must be the floor itself where the sports are to be played

"Sports hall"

A secas:
Sports halls are necessarily functional single volumes, large and high, as defined by pitch layouts and DfES and Sport England guidelines. They are usually blind (and often dumb) boxes. Sports halls avoid windows in walls due to glare and distraction of players. Blank internal walls are preferred as they offer rebound surfaces for ball games. The design challenge for Kingsdale School Sports Hall was to turn a generic low-budget box into daylit and expressive architecture. A large interior volume offering maximum flexibility for different user-groups was required.

El reto del diseño para Kingsdale School Sports Hall fue convertir lo que normalmente en una caja de bajo presupuesto en una arquitectura luminosa y ...
