French term

grille orthonormée

French to English Tech/Engineering Architecture Steel structures
Contrairement aux structures traditionnelles dont les coordonnées des nœuds s’inscrivent sur une grille orthonormée, la localisation aléatoire des poteaux ne donnait pas de repère facile pour le montage.

Can anyone confirm that this means "orthostandard"?
I'm not very sure and maybe someone is already familiar with this term.
