Danish term or phrase: formdimensionering
Anybody have a suggestion? It's probably quite banal, like plan or design, but I just want to make sure, because it seems global for the type of document. Context: Formdimensionering i henhold til DS/EN 13670:2009

EN 13670 is the European standard - Execution of Concrete Structures and would probably give me a clue but you have to pay for it and as it's not in the brief, I'm not doing that!

suggestion asap please - deadline tomorrow!

Since you're under the gun, I'll answer here, but perhaps you should submit a new question for the sake of good KudoZ "form" ( ;-) )when you have time:

"føringrør" > "pipe case". See discussion at http://www.ezz.dk/705593-ncc-og-skjult-ror#10 and Google results for "pipe casing" _ concrete + floors at http://tinyurl.com/3vjfsds

Sorry, that should be "pipe casing" as it is in my link!

Asker: Ah... so it's to do with the actual concrete. Thanks Charles

Asker: Hi, Charles...and while you're around, do you have a suggestion for føringrør for VVS og EL? Lead-ins? Channels? or simply plumbing and electricity? Phil Curry philcurry@philcurry.net

Asker: Thanks, I thought it might be something as simple as that. I had used lead-ins for wiring/plumbing...but if pipe casing is official...
