Comment: "Thanks to all, i ended up using this answer as it seemed to fit. I wish I had had pictures for some of those items, it would have been a lot more helpful than trying to imagine what on earth some of those descriptions meant! Many thanks to you guys for rushing to my rescue in my time of need!

According to my "Langenscheidt Bauwesen", this is called a "false edge". Kim will probably know for sure ...

(Can\'t find any evidence on the internet to support this so far, so I wouldn\'t use this unless there are peer comments with evidence to back it up)

Yes, I was just thinking the same - and I can't find any decent evidence to support it.
