angles

French to English Other Business/Commerce (general) Trade fair info
Hello all,
Am translating info for exhibitors in a trade fair, the following comes from descriptions of stands available for hire.

Options stand
Angle
Pour un stand > à 15m2 545€/angle
Pour un stand > à 12m2 750€/angle
From the pictures and the measurements given this appears to be the floor section, can anyone confirm this and/or provide the correct English term? At the moment I have opted for floor panel, not sure if this is right though. Thanks in advance for any help!
Proposed translations (English)
4 +3 corner stands

Conor McAuley Sep 28, 2012:
Ok, well, it looks like the key question is: does "angle" refer to floor space, or kit, or both? Maybe one where you need to ask the customer.
Anne Greaves (asker) Sep 28, 2012:
there seems to be a registration fee
Conor McAuley Sep 28, 2012:
Also, is there some kind of basic charge for a stand/floor space apart from this charge? Is this charge an optional extra, if you can tell from the document?
Anne Greaves (asker) Sep 28, 2012:
Good question! In fact I mistakenly typed > instead of <, but in the pdf these are both underlined, not worked that out yet!
Conor McAuley Sep 28, 2012:
Why is the smaller area more expensive?

corner stands

These are stands that have one back panel and one side panel, leaving them open to gangways on the other two sides. Images are available here:

Note from asker:
Thanks, that makes better sense!
Peer comment(s):

neutral Tony M : But if that were so, why would it be priced at €X/angle? Surely it is either 'corner' or 'not corner'?

The stand is called an "angle". For size > 15m2, 545€ per stand.
agree Conor McAuley : Seems to be some kind of kit for a stand, perhaps not the full stand though
