fire compartment-separating building components Explanation: I used this in a translation back in February and it was well received. I based it on the description in the example sentence, which I found in the at the reference link below, at page 123, item 5:62. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 24 mins (2010-12-13 03:47:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I have a 2007 version of "Eurokod-termer" from SIS (Swedish Standards Institute) that shows "fire compartment" for "brandcell". Unfortunately, I can't find an online source for this document right now for you. Example sentence(s):

fire partition Explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_(construction) "There are two main classifications of fire walls: fire partitions, and true fire walls. To the layperson, the common use of language typically includes both when referring to a firewall unless distinguishing between them is necessary." With all due respect, no one really speaks like the "very winded" previous suggestions, imho. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_(construction) |
