German term

Anarbeiten

German to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Windows/glazing
Context:

"Anarbeiten – bauseits"

Explanation: Danach gilt als Anarbeiten "das Heranführen an begrenzende Bauteile ohne Anpassen oder Anschließen." z.B. wenn Dachpfannen wieder bis zum Fenster neu eingesetzt werden müssen.
See: https://www.bauprofessor.de/anarbeiten-nach-vob-c/

Attach (see https://www.proz.com/kudoz/82591 ) evidently doesn't work here, how about prefabrication ( https://www.proz.com/kudoz/53402 )?

* Sentence or paragraph where the term occurs: See above
* Document type: Technical drawing
* Target audience: Technical
* Country and dialect (source): German
* Country and dialect (target): English

Closed wuthout grading because it needs to be expressed in a more context-specific way, rather than there simply being one right translation of the German term, as mentioned here, for example:

David Williams (asker) Dec 11, 2020:
Yes, the context is just two words, although it is meant as specified in the definition on bauprofessor.de

Placement?
Is the context just two words?
Also, I think some of the answers to the previous questions look convincing.

Tile finish will butt to dome edge - tile should finish under dome edge about ¼” minimum, more than ¼” is fine.
Cut tile around ears and butt tile to outside edge of Niche.

Use Hip/Ridge/Rake tile on rake edges to complete a traditional tile aesthetic. This component can also be used to box in the rake and butt tile to the rake edge for a distinct appearance.

Tile around window. Now I have seen this done 2 ways and others with more experience at doing this can describe better their method of install.
1. Butt tile directly to edge of the glass block - meaning the glass block must be set inside to allow the tile to do this.

incorporate into

Seems to apply to finishing work, or just finishing, or even better incorporate, but the rest of the sentence should include some reference to "onto", as in you are finishing a part or component so that it fits in with the rest of the possibly newly built parts or components.

I think incorporate works especially well given that it involves no adjustments or connections. "ohne Anpassen oder Anschließen."
