no risk of further damage and follow-up costs? Wed Aug 27, 2008 20:12 pm  no risk of further damage and follow-up costs?
 

Hello my dear translator friends,

Can you take a look at the following phrase please:
no risk of further damage and follow-up costs

The phrases above is my attempt to translate this German phrase:
Keine Beschädigungen des Unterbaus / Erhaltung der Homogenität

We are still taking about bridges -- so 'Unterbau' refers to the lower part of a bridge.

Many thanks,
Torsten

Hi Torsten,

I'd say you could translate a little closer to the original here.

No substructure damage/ preservation of homogeneity/balance/substance

Hi Ralf,

Thanks a lot for this. I've just noticed that I muddled two phrases up here. My original translation was "no damage to the substruction / homogeneity is kept" and the other phrase is here.

Anyway, your "no substructure damage/ preservation of homogeneity" looks very good.
Regards,
Torsten
