French term

appelant

French to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Welding procedures
Le CST (Cahier de Specifications Tech.) appelant le CRT (Cahier de Regles Techniques, I think) soudage prévaut sur les recommandations du présent document.

"calling on" is the natural reaction - but is there a more technical verb part?

Thanks in advance.

@ Alba Yes, 3 docs the present one is the master.
Susanna MacKenzie Apr 13, 2011:
I gather that your text deals with a total of three documents:
1. le CST
2. le CRT
3. le présent document.
Does the context confirm this?

It depends, if you don't need it to be too legalistic, then yes referring or making reference to would be fine.
Note from asker:
Hi! Sounds a bit legal, but why not? How about "Making reference to" ?

agree Bourth (X) : Though a bit formal.

Thanks Bourth. Depends what is needed: if it is more than referring and is appealing to the higher authority of the CRT, then "invoking" would be accurate.
