Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / wastewater systems
Danish term or phrase: sideslag (in this context)
Suitable context taken from a file on Google:
Ved en synlig vandret montage i f.eks. kælder kan der
tages højde for rørenes længdeudviddelse ved hjælp
af ekspansionslyrer eller **sideslag**. Hvis muligt udnyttes
**sideslagene** i de naturlige retningsændringer. Ved
lige rørstrækninger, hvor begge rørender er fastgjorte
optages ekspansionen ved hjælp af ekspansionslyrer.

Often "side impact", anyone know what it is here please, assuming that it's not the same?
TIA asap
