Juraplatte (Bauwesen)

[Barbara]

"eine Gebäudehülle aus kalksteinfarbenen Juraplatten"
As far as I can tell "Juraplatten" are limestone panels - which would make the adjective redundant. Does anybody know for certain what Juraplatten are?
Thanks for any help.[/quote]

Hello Barbara,

I assume that the description "kalksteinfarben" was added in order to convey the notion of "typically limestone-colored" because Jura limestone can vary considerably as to color.
