ciao Sonia siccome ci sono tanti tipi di travetto in laterizio credo che la cosa migliore sarebbe fare una ricerca Google Immagini per individuare quello che ti interessa, poi ricerche immagini per STRUCTURAL BRICK (ROOFING)/ REINFORCED CLAY ROOFING/HOLLOW BRICK JOISTS etc. per trovare il termine giusto in inglese.
buon lavoro!

Sure it's "brick"? I've seen Lucrezia's "joist" but here are some suggestions: "girder", "beam", "rafter", "joist", "travetto del tetto = header (of a wooden frame), "travetto metallico/di metallo = bar joist", "doppio travetto = barge rafter", "(concrete) beam", "(concrete) joist", "purlin", "t. di colmo = ridge board", "t.di sostegno = trimmer", "t. di rinforzo = auxiliary rafter", "common joist". I find it rather hard to choose one for your rather scant context.
