Norwegian term or phrase: bystning
Det er grunn til å anta at vindusfelt er levert som et element med tett bystning under.
Hele feltet må skiftes ut, da vedlikehold av eksisterende overflater og skifte av glass vil bli såpass omfattende at det ikke vil svare seg.

flange
Explanation:
Firstly, I agree this is a typo for 'brystning' which can indeed be translated as 'apron', but this refers to a very specific part of a window frame structure (see reference). The term 'flange' is more general and fits the context of a watertight seal under the window section, so I feel would be safer to use here.

This is a Danish website, but it might be what you are looking for.
I am not entirely sure what it is called in English

It should be brystning, and this question was raised on proz.com already.

Clue says it's window wall. I've got no clue.
