Spanish term

sistema antirremonte de fisuras

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) Road surfaces
My initial guess is the system stops cracked parts of the road surface from rising upwards... any ideas?

The full sentence:Rehabilitación estructural del firme de un tramo de 20 km, consistente en la eliminación parcial del firme existente, la ejecución de un sistema antirremonte de fisuras, y el recrecimiento en 2 capas de firme mediante mezclas bituminosas en caliente.

Thanks

anti-reflective cracking system

Reflective cracking (remonte de fisuras) occurs when base layer cracks propagate to the surface. More than stoping cracked parts to rise, what these anti-reflective cracking systems do is help to avoid the propagation of cracks from base layers or existing pavements to the overlays on top of them, either by reinforcing the overlays of pavement, or by disconnecting them from the base layer.

Thanks, Saruro
agree tazdog (X) : yes, I think it's definitely reflective cracking, but I think "reflective crack relief" system/method might be better. http://tinyurl.com/3tx6eth

Thanks, Cindy. Point taken on the term.
agree Peter Clews : Looks like you're right, but it's not "relief", it's prevention. Maybe "application of ('ejecución de') a system to prevent reflective cracking"

Thanks, pclews, for your comment. I do think Cindy's suggestion is right, though. Although they are, in fact, preventive, these are usually called "relief systems". http://trid.trb.org/view.aspx?id=878508
