German term

Feinblech

German to English Tech/Engineering Architecture Building Materials
"Helle, glatte Feinbleche sind den Artrien und Innenhöfen zugewandt".
This is the description of a new industrial complex in Germany.
Would "Feinblech" be "sheet steel".
How is "light colored sheet steel faces the artria and courtyards"?
Proposed translations (English)
4 Steel Sheets

It's atria, not artria.

Steel Sheets

Yes, I'd say it's most likely "Steel sheets"

glatte needs to be entered into your translation. I'd say something like, 'Bright, smooth steel sheet facing the artria and courtyards'

Steel sheets aren't really "light colored", but rather "bright" :)
