peer agreement (net): +5| creep deflections will be less than is experienced ... Creep deflections will be reduced compared to the usual/average creep deflections Explanation: Creep deflections will be lower/less than is usual/average with the particular sawn timber to which 2.7.2 applies. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs 3 mins (2004-08-20 12:44:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- From your text I cannot deduce that the sawn timber in question is different from the standard sawn timber to which 2.7.2 applies. Let\'s assume that it\'s talking about a method of theoretical calculation of creep deflections. Then, compared with the actual measurement, this calculation method will produce a figure that is lower than the actual figure. But if this particular sawn timber is different from the standard type, then the meaning may be different. If this is the case, it means that the creep deflections for this type of timber are lower than that for standard timber. HTH! |
