German term or phrase: Haltung
These are a few sentences in which "Haltung" appears in this text:
“Die Probe wird nicht direkt aus dem Schlauchliner in der Haltung, sondern aus dem Zwischen- oder Endschacht entnommen.”

“Bei Schlauchlinern, die mit Warmwasser oder Dampf aushärten, läuft der Schlauchliner über die zu sanierende Haltung hinaus in den Schacht hinein, wo er in einem Stützrohr aushärtet.”

“Es ist darauf zu achten, dass die Geometrie des Probeschlauches nicht von den Verhältnissen in der Haltung abweicht.”

Danke!

canal [...] , the connecting structure between two shafts
[...], sections of a canal system which have common
