cut and dap


Explanation:
usek - cut
zasek - dap, notch, gain
zasecanje - dapping

Izvor: Enciklopedijski rečnik građevinarstva i arhitekture, grupe autora

Za cut sam sigurna, za dap nisam čula ali tako piše u ovom rečniku, koji je generalno pouzdan. Notch i gain u ovom kontekstu mislim da ne bi bili upotrebljivi.

Našla sam i u ovom dokumentu gde engleski nije baš idealan ali pretpostavljam da su bar termine preveli kako treba:
