join together
Explanation:
Cosmin,
Parerea mea e ca ar trebui sa-i spui simplu "join together".
Extruded aluminum profiles join together by a tongue and groove connection.
Am mai gasit si un material interesant in care se precizeaza:
The joining of aluminum extrusions can be accomplished by way of nine distinct methods that can be designed into the profiles themselves.
1. nesting
2. interlocking
3. snap-fit
4. three-piece interlock
5. combination
6. slip-fit
7. hinge joint
8. key-lock joint
9. screw slot

Mulţumesc, Claudia, şi îmi pare rău de reacţiile iscate pornind de la acest termen. Oricum, pentru precizia traducerii, completările terminologice ale Mihaelei şi a lui Ion au fost utile.
