modular interior wall Explanation: elementiert means modular, like in following reference: "Sanitärzellen werden nach zwei Systemen sowohl als Kompakt-Einheit als auch in Modulen, der sogenannten “Elementierten Ausführung” im Werk gefertigt. Die Montage auf der Baustelle erfolgt entsprechend in einem Stück oder durch den Zusammenbau der Module." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-08-13 01:08:53 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- By the way, DIN476 describes paper formats; or is the meaning of the two questionmarks that you don\'t know the complete number?

DIN 276 Explanation: Agree with Hans-Henning on the term and would like to add that the standard you are citing is almost certainly DIN 276 (Building Costs) NOT 476. Search result @ www.beuth.de, the German publishing house for standards: DIN 276, Publication date:1993-06 Volltext in bauregeln.de Building costs At the cited website, you can order an English translation of the standard (EUR 89.20).
