detailed electrotechnical (design-)engineering Explanation: Das Umschreiben geht ähnlich wie bei Detailkonstruktion (was ja auch der richtige deutsche Ausdruck ist) detail design-engineering work [autom.] die Detailkonstruktion detailed engineering [tech.] die Detailkonstruktion http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType... Ob man "design" mit hinzunimmt, hängt davon ab, was der genaue Inhalt der Aufgabe ist. Design zielt mehr auf die Ausführungsart ab, Engineering allein auf die technische Lösung. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 hrs (2012-08-21 22:05:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As Andrew wondered about this proposal and proposed a differnet one (fine engineering), I was obliged to verify both terms for correctness and frequency. The meaning of "Detailed Engineering" often differs from company to company. We perceive detailed engineering to include the following functions: Layout planning and detailed coordination/clarification of details Inventory taking on site Design of pipe layout and instrumentation Arrangement of components Calculation of material requirements and technical specifications Definition of interfaces Configuration and dimensioning of instrumentation and control equipment Technical description of the processes : http://www.niroinc.com/gea_liquid_processing/detailed_engine... The line is to be operated by the Toronto Transit Commission. Metrolinx had budgeted $944.5 million from 2009 through 2014 for the design and construction of the line.[1] Funding was approved by the provincial and federal governments in May 2009.[2] Detailed engineering had also been initiated for the grade separation of Sheppard Avenue East and the GO Transit tracks east of Kennedy Road. Construction for the line began on 21 December 2009 at Agincourt GO Station.[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheppard_East_LRT Detailed Engineering The phase of engineering following basic engineering after approval has been given for the project. Provides the specifications and construction drawings which detail all engineering aspects for the construction of a project.
