French term or phrase: en lisse haute et départ mur
Bonjour
Je dois faire un exercice assez inhabituel (for internal use only): traduire qlq points techniques figurant dans un devis.
Il s'agit d'un projet de vérification des barrières phoniques.
"Mise en place de joint acrylique en lisse haute et départ mur". Après qlq investigations sur le sujet, je pensais à "wall cap and start of wall from floor"
"Implementation of white acrylic seal on wall cap and start of wall from floor"
Does it make any sense to English natives?..
thanks !!!
