French term or phrase: gerbage/dégerbage
12.10. Premier gerbage et stockage de la garniture de forage dans le mât
L’Entrepreneur gerbe les tiges de forage 5’’ à une cadence minimum de 25 tiges par heure. En cas de non atteinte de cette cadence, il est rémunéré sur cette base et aux tarifs de l’annexe 8.

12.21. Gerbage et dégerbage courants des tiges
Les seuils de performances des opérations de gerbage et dégerbage des tiges sont :
- 25 simples par heure pour le gerbage des garnitures 5" et 3"1/2 ;
- 35 simples par heure pour le dégerbage des garnitures 5" et 3"1/2.

... in some places, "racking" is given as the translation for "gerbage" and "laydown" for "dégerbage." But, knowing nothing about mining, I can't be sure...
