French to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / roofing materials
French term or phrase: développement
Profilé de bord en tant que support de la toiture inversée au niveau des bord libres. Profilé de bord en tôle d’acier galvanisé à chaud ; épaisseur de tôle selon exigences structurelles ; développement :environ 800 mm ; pliage double ; fixation mécanique à la dalle brute.

The above regarding a profile de bord of a roof. What I am not sure of is how to translate "developpement", which seems to mean something like deployment rather than development.
TIA for any suggestions

if you flattened it out.

low confidence because there's probably a better way of expressing it

Example of meaning of covering a surface:
Au sous-sol du bâtiment cour, on trouve deux niveaux de sous-sol développant au total 2 125 m².
