collection or collector pipe/duct/pot/piece Explanation: The English version of the first site you mention (ocuenginerring.nl) translates 'instortpot' as both 'collapsing pot' and 'pouring pot' I doubt whether these translations are correct. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2020-08-13 14:12:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- @Asker: Sorry Ruth, something went wrong with that first link.

embedded or in-slab duct(work) fitting/connector/pot Explanation: Think I got it wrong with my first answer (collection or collector pipe/duct/pot/piece). Checking your references and other information, the term 'instort' does not seem to refer to air flow processes but to the suitability of the part concerned for embedding in concrete floors and other structures. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 8 hrs (2020-08-16 15:03:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A variation on this terminology is 'imbedment'. See https://theconstructor.org/concrete/embedments-reinforced-co... . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 days 8 hrs (2020-08-16 15:10:57 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Oops: embedment! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 days (2020-08-22 10:29:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- By the way, if the notion of embedding the part in concrete or whatever is correct, I guess my suggestion of an embedded part should have read 'embeddable'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 days (2020-09-04 09:00:47 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- You're welcome, Ruth. Not a bad idea in this case, I think, to translate the term in a completely different way. https://tinyurl.com/y633bzkj Reference: http://www.eccoduct.com/ |
