German term or phrase: Reihenpfosten
Für den Bau einer Schutzgitteranlage in einer Logistik-Software werden u. a. Reihenpfosten verwendet. Für den Begriff "Eckpfosten" hat der Kunde bereits "corner post" vorgegeben. Aber was mache ich mit dem "Reihenpfosten"?:

Im Bereich Geometrie kann der Pfostentyp zwischen **Reihenpfosten** und Eckpfosten umgeschaltet werden. Ein **Reihenpfosten** hat neben dem Basispunkt auf der Unterseite 2 mögliche Anschlusspunkte zum Anfügen eines Schutzgitters.
