Portuguese term or phrase: Graminhados
Hi,

i am translating a document about technical specification of steel profiles and construction material. It is a Portuguese doc but from Angola. I am not able to find the meaning of the word "GRAMINHADO". This word comes when the doc talks about drilling of sheet metals / profiles and sections.

The context is:

"Do centro de cada furo à aresta central (graminhado) e aos adjacentes (situados em 1 ou 2 linhas de graminhado)"

Can anybody help me with this one? tried searching a few dictionaries and references, but none is satisfactory.

Please let me know if you need any other context/sentence for better understanding.

Thank you,

Saumitra.
