Explanation:
Unless there is a more accepted term for this, it looks like it's referring to sizing (wood cut lengths/widths, perhaps?).

neutral  Elisabeth Ghysels: improbable; apparently it is one of the main components of the "programma matematica scuola elementare"; I'm gaining the impression, that it's very similar to what was called "Geometrie" in my German school days; but I can't find confirmation

Explanation:
un calcolo dimensionale serve a stabilire le dimensioni, la grandezza

opterei per "sizing calculation"
(=calcolo di dimensionamento)

dimensional analysis


Explanation:
From McGraw-Hill/Zanichelli:
"calcolo dimensionale/dimensional analysis: A technique that involves the study of dimensional quantities, used primarily as a tool for obtaining information aboutphysical systems..."

Resta difficile senza sapere le natura delle macchine indicate, ma se fossero elettroniche, oppure tecnologicamente sofisticate per esempio, "dimensional analysis" potrebbe funzionare.

Auguri!
