Text about building a multi-storey car park
Die Firma ***** stellt die Stuetzeneinfassungen her.
I'm afraid there isn't a whole lot more context to give, other than the fact that the "Stuetzeneinfassungen" are for a multi-storey car park, and that this sentence comes under the heading, "Strassenbau".
The best I can come up with is "pillar border" or possibly "pillar curb", but I'm really not sure what's actually meant here. A Google search yielded just these two results:
https://www.dachbaustoffe.de/suche/stuetzeneinfassung
http://www.heinze.de/ausschreibungstext/anschluss-rhepanol-f...
Make of them what you will... ;-)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Selected
column/buttress trim/border
I imagine them to be rather massive and the 'Einfassungen' are something like the concrete borders around columns. Something like the second photo on the top row: https://www.google.de/search?q=Stützeneinfassung&client=fire...

Comment: "I eventually chose "column border", but many thanks to everyone for their suggestions!"
1 hr
support covering
Since it is material that can be rolled up, it has to be some sort of covering for a structural element, so 'support' for 'Stütze' is not that far off
3 hrs
column collar
Used for strengthening the base of columns in prefabricated concrete buildings
Example sentence:
The final concrete repair work involved the installation of concrete column collars to strengthen the waffle slabs for punching shear deficiencies.
14 hrs
pillar cladding
That's what I'd call it.

If you try googling "pillar cladding"; "column cladding", "column casing", "column cladding", there are thousands of hits for each, so take your pick...

: pillar or column cladding is applied around a raw concrete pillar as a protective or decorative layer.
@David - I did (and I always do), but some may not have the time or inclination to look - unlike us.
