Hello,
I'm looking for the US term for the above entry which is found in contex5 below under the heading of
'Interior build out work' and right after these 2 sentences:
"Les fixations au plancher haut ou toiture se font exclusivement dans les éléments porteurs selon des principes qui doivent être approuvés par le bureau de contrôle.
Le spittage est interdit."
"Aucun effort de poussée ne doit être appliqué aux poteaux de l’ossature et murs latéraux.
Thanks so much for any help on this one.
Regards,
Richard

stress
Perhaps: "No stress should be applied..."
But others may have better solutions.

: The patent is poorly translated from French and not related to construction. "Push force" is not an appropriate term for the present context.

horizontal loads
Difficult to tell from the context but term "effort de poussée" is generally used to discribed the lateral or horizontal forces from earth behind retaining wall structures.
My structural engineering background is telling me that your columns and walls are only designed to resist vertical loading from the rest of the building.

: Yes. Even if they have a diagonal strut against a wall or column, it will have a horizontal component.

thrust
When constructing the upper floor (ceiling) and roof, they don't want any thrust (be it vertical or horizontal) applied to the side walls or framework structure (skeleton) of the building, but only to the designated load-bearing elements, which will have been appropriately calculated to meet the demands expected of them.

: Strictly speaking, 'thrust' relates to dynamic systems; the source text refers to static conditions.
