@ Nick I am lost indeed. However, as I mentioned, if you search Google for the term, you get zero returns. It seems this is an artistic creation of the author.
Nick Taylor Mar 11, 2022:
Hi Douglas Another possibility might be "buttresses" as the "push" against the structure. In Pt "contrafortes"

Hi Douglas Everyone seems at a bit of a loss over this one! A possibly "logical" explanation might be "props". "trestles" it would seem that "impulso" means something like "pushing" against the structure.

A mere guess, since the term "banqueta de impulso" does not exist in this area and returns ZERO occurrences in Google.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Nick Taylor : Quite so Mário, I thought it might be "contraforte" but that is a guess too :-)

I guess Douglas will have to talk to the author of this thing.
