GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

German term or phrase: Betonkernaktivierung
I have a problem in translating Betonkernaktivierung. Could it be core concrete activation??

Aufgrund des Speicherumfangs der Bauteile ist die Betonkernaktivierung relativ träge und eine individuelle, schnelle und raumbezogene Temperaturregelung nicht möglich.

Bei der Auslegung der Betonkernaktivierung ist die Unterschreitung des Taupunkts zum Schutz des Bauwerks und des Rohrleitungssystems zu vermeiden

Thanks for any help

As Steffen points out, this has been asked before. I did not check the proz.com term search myself, although I usually do. Because my answer is the one also proposed elsewhere, please feel free to do with this question as you see fit. Please consider all answers.
thanks!

Asker: Hi Bernhard, thanks for the comment. I did look for this in the search but was not quite satisfied with the result. I was much more confident due to the link you found, thanks once again. CCC was also a good alternative.
