Sprungmaß
:
Das Sprungmaß, Bundmaß oder auch "Maß über Holz" gibt den Abstand zweier tragender Hölzer (z.B. Sparren, Balken) an. Es wird von einer Kante des Holzes über das Holz bis zur gleichen Kante des nächsten Holzes gemessen. Der Grund für die Verwendung des Maßes über Holz sind die nicht ganz exakten Holzabmessungen.

My question:
In German, the term is Sprungmaß or “measuring over the wood”. The definition is: “this measurement gives the distance between two bearing timbers (e.g. rafters, beams, joists). It is measured from one edge of the beam over the beam to the same edge of the next beam. The reason for measuring over the beam is that the dimensions of the beam are often inexact.
Hi Kim I think you are confusing yourself with technical terminology, to put it simple if the sprung mass is 60cm the English term you are looking for is 60cm on centers. More normally said as 60cm OC.
Just to explain what’s going on, when any carpenter checks his lay out he never measures the beams from center to center but places his tape on one edge of the beam and goes to the same edge on the next beam and this will give him the measurement on centers.
Not to confuse you but in the real world a German speaking carpenter would call it just the same way a English speaking carpenter, i.e. "out to in" and in German "aussen zu innen. Hope this helps, Billy
Where there are stretches of wall between windows and doors over four feet in length, the studding will need to be spaced 16 inches between
centres, or 16 inches from the inside of one stud to the outside of the next, which, it will readily be understood, is the same thing. Carpenters call this spacing from "in to out," and follow it for joists, studding and rafters.

Now that I think of it, "Es wird von einer Kante des Holzes über das Holz bis zur gleichen Kante des nächsten Holzes gemessen." is actually "out to in" as Billy says.
