Hello,
There is very little context - sorry. It comes from a list of Contractor's responsibilities for the installation of HVAC systems:
"Las ayudas de estricto peonaje y albañilería auxiliar."
(The document is from Spain)
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards.
Katy

[restricted to/solely using] laborer gangs and bricklayers
Perhaps the "gangs" also include the bricklayers.
Are they excluding the "ayuda" [assistance] of architects and other professionals?
Hard to tell, Catherine.
Luck to you:-)

Sorry!
Forgot: "auxiliar".
Likewise hard to tell here..perhaps "additional".."extra".."supplementary".

Comment: "Thanks for your help - in the end the client said that it meant the Contractor only had to provide the services of labourers and bricklayers, but your answer was helpful. Thanks again."
