Adhesive cladding sheets [made from thin lead sheeting] are used for covering flat roofs and have an adhesive layer so that they can be easily fixed into position by adhering and then be primed.

As Graham says, "salers" does not really exist - despite the continuous development of the English language and its increasing Americanisation. Google give 36 hits, many of which have one or more Australian references. Considering that we Brits shipped a ...

'Height' in itself is not sufficient because it doesn't describe what height...maatvoering is dimensions in English. Here, the 'hoogtemaatvoering' relates to the reference level, most probably in relation to the depth of the piles in the ground up to the ...

Will, I agree that this is debatable. One business for all; One for all and all for one business or variations upon a theme would seem to fit. Sometimes it's difficult to work out where the original English has influenced the Dutch writer and thus might ...

Yes, I think the literal translation is the best fit. Why would they want to make it more complicated?

Thanks guys! For the clarity of the site, I'm going to choose 'discharge sink' as the answer and will close it here. Graham or Will can one or other of you "officially" answer so that I can grade it and close. Thanks!

Correct Graham! Hence answer accepted - it just reinforced my initial thoughts. Thanks!

I agree Graham, especially because the survey is to be carried out to verify mechnical suitability of the construction on the site location, there being no mention of a question of soil pollution - ipso facto in English, a survey. I've gone for ...

I agree with Graham. Of the three choices, I would probably choose "mounting flange."

Nicola, I don't know whether you might find something in this link: www.douane.nl It has an English language link and a quick check shows a lot of articles on Tobacco as well as Excise Duty. Just a thought...

This clearly fits precisely with what I've been searching for - and it hasn't been helped by the somewhat poor original text vocabulary and grammar. @Graham:- Thank you very much!
