tubo de descarga
Explanation:
Já encontrei algumas vezes a palavra "chute" sendo escrita erroneamente como "shoot", que me parece a situação apresentada. O sentido da frase é de "chute" (tubo de descarga ou calha de descarga). Em construções se usa o termo "construction chute" para a tubulação de descarga de materiais do alto dos prédios para locais mais baixos, e nos edifícios em geral temos os "garbage chutes" ou "trash chutes" que são as tubulações de lixeira.
