ring compressive strength; compressive strength of the rings Explanation: Druckfestigkeit is "compressive strength" (or "compression strength"). I suspect the pipes may have a ring or rings around them, hence "Ringdruckfestigkeit", and "ring compressive strength" or maybe "compressive strength of the pipes' ring(s)". Hope this has been of some assistance. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-05-29 12:35:58 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Gillian\'s rather emphatic \"agree\" with John\'s answer is a pretty telling point in his favour. Like John, Jill knows her technical stuff. |
