Hello

In:

Försiktig sprängning – man har kortare ***pallar*** och vidtar övriga försiktighetsåtgärder.

what the heck is a "pall" (not a "stool")

I've learnt that it is also called a "bergklack" which was asked on Proz

https://www.proz.com/kudoz/swedish_to_english/geology/330886...

but no one answered this question.

Thanks
