Spanish term

equipos de demolición del crisol

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Metallurgy / Casting
Hi everyone,

I just wanted to double-check whether 'equipos' here would refer to equipment or to teams?:


Here's the full paragraph for more context:

Accesos:

Los registros de acceso de personal y equipos deberán ser aperturados por personal de planta o contratista mecánico.

Accesos para equipo de demolición del crisol:

Para el acceso de los equipos de demolición del crisol, se deberá aperturar 2 puertas de acceso, cortando la coraza metálica con secciones de 3.10m x 5.00m, tanto la apertura como el cierre de estas puertas deberá ser realizado por planta o contratista mecánico.


Thanks in advance for your help!

equipment

I don't think you need a door measuring 3.10 x 5.00 m for a team, so I guess it's a large piece of demolition equipment.

agree psicutrinius : Exactly the same idea. Plus, I see no reason for "aperturar": "se deberán cortar secciones de la coraza metálica de 3,10m. x 5m."

When will they write for the reader instead of trying to impress some imaginary god of excessive word use. I only studied "writing skills for scientist" course, class 1 "write for the reader: know your reader" during post-grad;should be earlier Thanks Psi

Thanks Jane
agree philgoddard : It can't be "teams", because it says "personal y equipos".

CHeers Phil, although they could be referring to staff and subcontractors, I suppose.

the other possibility
Peer comment(s):

neutral Neil Ashby : What other possibility? This is the same but swapping "equipment" for the less generalised "machinery".
