thumb|upright|Model of centring for a ribbed dome structure at Albrechtsburg. Centring, centre, centering, or center is a type of falsework: the temporary structure upon which the stones of an arch or vault are laid during construction. Until the keystone is inserted an arch has no strength and needs the centring to keep the voussoirs in their correct relative positions. A simple centring without a truss is called a common centring. A cross piece connecting centring frames is called a lag or bolst.

La cèntina è un'opera provvisionale che viene usata in architettura e in edilizia come "base d'appoggio" per il posizionamento dei conci di un arco o di una volta, qualora siano in mattoni, o per farne da cassaforma al getto, qualora siano in calcestruzzo.
