Roof inspection
Hi, I'm trying to verify the most accruate EN translation of inntekking as used below. Simply covering or waterproofing? It appears in the roof inspection finding report.
Thanks for your help!
Renna bør da være nedsenket og bør forbinde flere sluk. Renna bør ha en bredde på ca. 500 mm, som gir gode arbeidsforhold ved inntekking av sluk, og bør tekkes med en langsgående bane med god kvalitet og få skjøter
