lining Explanation: (Engineers understand this as idiomatic.) ("brick up" is ambiguous in that it may mean to seal over an opening by means of bricks.) |

brick up Explanation: the bricking up of a bemetseling = brickwork BEMETSELEN Woordsoort: ww.(trans.,zw.) Modern lemma: bemetselen bedr. zw. ww. Van Metselen. +ᴁ1. Iets door metselwerk aan of in iets vastmaken. Sonder dat in ofte aen eenige schoorsteenen doorkomende houten, 't zy balcken, ribben, ofte anders, sullen mogen werden bemetselt, Keuren v. Leyd. 63. ᴁ— In oneigenlijke opvatting: zeer stevig, onwrikbaar in iets vastmaken. Daarment blancke Staal bemetselt inde schede, Daar vriestet door den Tijdt vast in den dicken roest, BREDERO 1, 45 [1611]. ᴁ2. Van een water: binnen metselwerk besluiten. Het Riviertje de Zoom is binnen de Stad bemetseld, en wordt daar de Grebbe genaamd, Teg. Staat d. Ver. Ned. 2, 155. ᴁ3. Door metselen iets voorzien van datgene wat eene bepaling aanduidt of wat uit het verband blijkt. http://www.wnt.inl.nl/iWDB/search?actie=article_content&wdb=... brick up = dichtmetselen / inmetselen / bemetselen brickwork = metselwerk / muurwerk / bemetseling / ommetseling http://www.taalvlinder.com/pages/lijsten/bouw.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 hrs (2010-07-14 02:51:42 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I do believe "bricking up" is more specific and can be used if the context leaves no room for ambiguity. Should you still have any doubt, then just "bricking (to brick = line with bricks (e.g. kiln)) might be an acceptable alternative to "bricking up". This known method has the disadvantage that the thermal energy radiated off the plasma jet constitutes a great load on the furnace lining, since the strongest heat radiation occurs perpendicularly to the axis of the plasma jet. This involves a shorter furnace campaign, i.e., the operation time of the furnace from one bricking up to the next bricking up of the refractory lining, on the one hand, and a poor utilization of the energy supplied on the other hand, since a large part of the heat must be absorbed by the furnace brickwork without participating in the melting process http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4533385.html to brick = line with bricks (e.g. kiln) http://kimkat.org/amryw/1_vortaroy/geiriadur_cymraeg_saesneg... van Dale: brick = met baksteen bekleden |
