Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / Drawings
French term or phrase: contrecalque
The word "contrecalque" appears in a contract for the supply of a road rail truck (a truck that can travel both on rails and on roads). Here are some examples of the use of the term:

1. Sauf stipulations particulières du marché, et qu’il y ait lieu ou non approbation des plans, le constructeur devra fournir la documentation suivante :
...
b.2) Pour les matériels fabriqués sur plans établis pour les besoins du marché
- Nomenclature complète des ensembles et pièces de détail. (En français et langue d’origine)
- Les plans d’ensemble correspond (en 3 ex. + 1 *contrecalque*)
- Les dessins de détail des pièces devront être fournis à SNIM, à sa demande *contrecalque* (en langue d’origine)

2. b.3) Matériels et organes de catalogue faisant partie des fabrications courantes du constructeur ou de ses sous-traitants.
- Nomenclature des organes (en français et en langue d’origine 3 ex. + 1 *contrecalque*)

The term seems to refer to engineering drawings and documentation. It is unlikely to matter, but the source document originates from Mauritania.

All suggestions are welcome.
