pendenza trasversale della strada Explanation: Road Crown and Camber A crowned road means that the outside/right hand side of the lane is lower than the left side of the lane. This improves the drainage of the road but adversely affects vehicle handling. Road crown must be compensated for in alignment settings because a vehicle driving on a crowned road leans to the right, causing some weight transfer to the right, and the camber changes slightly more positive. This combination creates a pull or drift to the right. Most alignment technicians adjust the vehicle with a slightly more positive camber, usually 1/4°, on the left to compensate for the road crown. This slightly more positive camber will not cause a noticeable pull when driving on a flat road. However, if camber is unequal from side to side with a difference greater than 1/2°, the vehicle will pull to the side with the most positive camber. If the specifications allow, 0° to ±.5° is usually best for tire life and vehicle handling. http://aligncraft.com/terms/terms.html http://www.proz.com/kudoz/english_to_italian/automotive_cars... |

| road crown (marcata/notevole) inclinazione trasversale della strada Explanation: È l'inclinazione della sezione di una strada dal centro, che è la parte più alta, verso i due bordi, per consentire il drenaggio dell'acqua. Nel brano si intende una situazione di guida in condizioni di notevole inclinazione trasversale della strada. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/229679-static-ali... "Road crown is a sort of a "camber"". "Road crown is the normal slope toward the outer edge of the road surface" https://www.google.it/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=1I14VOPuFsjD8ger6ID4Cw&g... https://www.google.it/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=1I14VOPuFsjD8ger6ID4Cw&g... http://archivio.fuoristrada.it/messages/18477/367972.html "L'avantreno tende a seguire l'**inclinazione trasversale della strada** perchè queste gomme hanno molta deriva, pur se gonfiate a 2.3." http://forum.cigraph.it/cigraph_forum_it/viewtopic.php?f=10&... "eventualmente con la possibilità del doppio profilo solo nel caso si voglia modificare l'**inclinazione trasversale della strada**, cosa francamente piuttosto rara e spesso neppure realizzabile". |
