Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation / electric arce furnace
English term or phrase: ramming
Dear all I'm in trouble with the term "ramming". I know the French terms "pisé" or "battage" but it does not seem to fit here.

APPLICATION Ferro-alloy hearth and launder ramming.
(All physical properties based on rammed semples).
