15 mins confidence:
8" stretch / line Explanation: "ramal" usually refers to a stretch between two points or a separate line. I assume this is what is referred to in terms of km. 8" would be diameter. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 mins (2007-07-23 15:18:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 31 mins (2007-07-23 15:28:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- whoops - the separate line "branches" in the sense that it originates from a fork. |

1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +18" branch line Explanation: Dice el glosario inglés-español del Colegio de Ingenieros petroleros de México: Branch line = ramal.-- Línea, generalmente tubería, que está conectada y diverge de otra línea. Lo de ocho pulgadas se refiere al diámetro. Puedes mencionarlo o no, porque se sobreentiende. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2007-07-23 16:20:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Es decir, se sobreentiende que es el diámetro. |
