English term or phrase: 100 ft-lbs
After all concrete anchors have been inserted, using a torque wrench, tighten each to 100 ft-lbs of torque.

Drehmoment wird in Newtonmeter angegeben; Nm= kg m2/s2; soviel weiß ich; da passt mir aber 100 ft-lbs irgendwie gar nicht in den Kram;

Kann sein, dass ich ganz gewaltig auf der Leitung stehe, aber wie übersetz ich das? Wär froh, wenn mich jemand schubsen könnte ;-)

neutral  Klaus Herrmann: Ich finde nur 135 Nm (ohne Nachkommastellen), aber auf jeden Fall gehört der Punkt zwischen N und m da nicht hin.

  -> thx
agree  G�nter Simon: ich stimme Klaus Herrmann zu und würde 135 Nm (100 ft-lbs) schreiben.

  -> thx
agree  Robert Schlarb: 135.6 oder 135.58 Nm sollte für diesen Zweck reichen; @ Klaus 135 ohne Nachkommastelle ist definitiv daneben, wenn nur drei Stellen, dann 136

neutral  Norbert Voelker: Grundsätzlich richtig, allerdings muss auf 136 Nm gerundet werden. Der genaue Wert hängt davon ab, ob das britische oder das US-Pfund gemeint ist. Dies spielt aber bei der vorgeschlagenen, sinnvollen Rundung keine Rolle.
