English term

Joist Bracing at 1'-0" o/c

English to French Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Construction details for building an ice hut
Hi
This is a very technical document. I understand that o/c stands for "over centre" but can't find the French equivalent. So: "Solive renforcée...?" Merci d'avance!

Tony M Apr 29, 2013:
Context? Asker, I think we need more of your wider context here; both of the quite different answers suggested so far are entirely plausible, but only your wirder context can help you decide.

Specifially, are we talking about bracing OF the joists (as F-X has suggested); or that it is the joists themselves that ARE the bracing? The EN is totally ambiguous on this point, so only the wider context MAY clarify this point...

Peer comment(s):

agree Tony M : Ah yes, now putting it that way, that DOES make sense: braced TO rather than AT.

Standard practice is 3 joists per meter (been there, done that) - the bracing, usually in the middle, ensures that the distance remains the same all along the joist

merci
neutral Tony M : o/c = OVER centres, as Asker has said. But this seems to miss out the 'bracing' element.
