Spanish term or phrase: altura

Actually, in the same part there is another thing I don't seem to understand too well, which is the "altura del mismo" (del cordón, I assume?...). How would you put it? Thanks a million!!!

Características de las soldaduras
La geometría de la soldadura, su forma, su tamaño y los requerimientos de clase de calidad, nivel de aceptación de imperfecciones y clase de inspección deben respetar los valores indicados en los planos y los criterios de aceptación.
Para los cordones de soldadura, se admite que las pequeñas faltas de penetración (menos de 1 mm) en la raíz del cordón no sean causa de rechazo si la altura del mismo no es menor que el valor previsto.

height of the weld seam

Explanation:
"if the height of the weld seam is not less than the projected value" Yes, basically "altura del mismo" would be literally "height of the same" but referring to what the sentence was talking about - "cordones de soldadura."
