vreme rusenja
Explanation:
To je vreme koje prodje od kopanja tunela do trenutka kada se zid ili krov tunela pocne rusiti ukoliko je ostavljen bez potpore. To prakticno zavisi od stepena kohezije materijala.

neutral  V&M Stanković: Ne može biti “vreme rušenja” - to bi značilo trajanje samog rušenja, ovde je to u smislu vremena DO rušenja (urušavanja), tj. vremena izdržavanja ili sl. Slažem se sa kolegom Dakićem, dobro bi bilo pronaći pravi stručni termin.

  -> Slazem se. U ovom slucaju trebalo bi upotrebiti termin od tri ili cetiri reci da bi se precizno opisao engleski termin.
neutral  Daniel Todorovski: pa očigledno - "vreme urušavanja", "vreme do urušavanja", "vreme do početka urušavanja" - zavisi koliko reči želite upotrebiti :)
