tile edge


Explanation:
The three building and construction dictionaries that I have translate this to tile edge, although they are NOT specific about "op" with the word kant.

Reference information:
(tile) upstand/tiles set on edge

Ernst Wörterbuch der Industriellen Technik (tysk-engelsk) siger "lay or set on edge", mens LEO har eksempler på "upstand" (http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType...
Diverse google-eksempler på "tile upstand" viser dog kun til dels en opkantet flisebort, til dels også bare den nederste kantafslutning på ydersiden af brusenicher osv. eller en slags overgangsliste mellem kar og flisegulv/-væg el.lign.

Dette kan muligvis hjælpe dig lidt videre, men skal naturligvis tages med forbehold, da jeg altså ikke har engelsk som arbejdssprog - jeg var bare nysgerrig, fordi jeg selv for nylig havde en del med den slags at gøre :)
