Italian term

punto di ripresa

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering specification for construction of car test track
I'm revising a translation done by someone else. Here's the context:

Taglio della sovrastruttura in conglomerato
bituminoso.
Taglio verticale degli strati nei punti di ripresa in senso
trasversale rispetto all'asse della carreggiata,
profondità di taglio da 3 a 6 cm.

"Punti di ripresa" was translated "acceleration areas", which can't be right. I'm thinking "around joints in the road", but am not sure.

Thanks.
Proposed translations (English)
4 daywork joint
3 joints in the concrete

joints in the concrete

I think this is what it means. One layer of concrete is cast and then another next to it. This is the interface between the two, the joint if you like.
