German term

Abmessungsraster

German to English Tech/Engineering Metallurgy / Casting Steel
Anfasen oder Anspitzen sowie Planen und Zentrieren von Stabstahl
- Rund- und Sechskantstahl in warm- oder kaltumgeformter Ausführung
- Vierkantstahl in kaltumgeformter Ausführung
Abmessungsraster: 8 mm bis 60 mm (Rund- und Sechskantstahl)
8 mm bis 30 mm (Vierkantstahl)
Anfaswinkel: 30°

The above is the only half-useful context I have.

I (think I) can picture what this is, but have no idea what we might call it. Anyone know?

All I can come up with is: dimensioning o. sizing grid.

TIA

I think

it could mean "size range" rather than "grid" - I only found 2 Googles for "Abmessungsraster", both of whichseem to suggest "(standardised/approved/
certified) range of sizes"

"...wobei das Quadrat dem genormten
Abmessungsraster einer Baustahlmatte
entspricht." (first link)

"Allerdings passen die standardisierten Abmessungen schlecht in das europäische Abmessungsraster. Die für den europäischen Markt zu geringe Innenbreite des Containers, angesichts der in Europa üblichen Paletten- und Verpackungsgrößen, lässt keine optimale Beladung zu..." (second link)

Size range

Definitely - I used to work in the steel industry.
Incidentally, call them round, square and hexagon bars - hot rolled or cold finished
