a 500m-wide strip along both sides of the tunnel Explanation: I feel that eje is superfluous, unles exact measurements are very important |

a band (...) on either side of the center line of the track layout Explanation: a band that stretches for 500 m on either side of the center point of the [tunnel?]. I'm not sure how "eje de la traza" is being used here, though. My sense in looking at how it's used in other engineering documents of a similar nature is that it consistently refers to to the *longitudinal* center line of a roadway or rail line. So, I strongly feel that it's talking about 500 m on either side of the center line of the track, i.e., measuring out perpendicular to the direction of the rail line. "En el período 2003 – 2007 se espera ampliar la red hasta un total de 164 km. de carriles exclusivos y 132 km. de carriles preferenciales. La configuración de la red permitirá que, a una distancia de 400 m. a cada lado del eje de la traza, acceda a la misma el 81 % de la población total de la ciudad y se encuentren el 89 % de los empleos, el 95 % de los establecimientos universitarios y el 86 % de los establecimientos terciarios." estatico.buenosaires.gov.ar/areas/med_ambiente/coordinacion/archivos/plan_de_accion.pdf "Esta circunstancia se manifiesta en una franja de terreno bajo la línea telefónica aérea, de una anchura que, para el caso que nos ocupa., se ha estimado de 2’5 m a ambos lados del eje de la traza y en la longitud equivalente a la canalización. www.cfnavarra.es/webgn/sou/instituc/da/proyectos/terminado/...

"a strip that runs 500m on both sides of the track layout center axis" Explanation: I agree that "both sides" is closer to the source text: .3 "Earth wire" means a conductor run on traction masts or structures or ... In non-track-circuited sections, both the rails of wired track are traction rails .... but also for a distance of 50m on both sides of the track circuited length. ... masts or structures or supports at a distance not exceeding 500m apart. ... www.indianrailways.gov.in/FinanceCode/ACTraction-II-P-II/Ac... - 25k - En caché - Páginas similares |
