Definition
Plural of brakeage; the act of braking or the damage caused by using brakes, or the cost of brake maintenance.
Etymology
From 'brake' (from Old English 'bracan' meaning to break) plus the agent noun suffix '-age'. This technical term likely developed in the railway and automotive industries.
Kelly Says
Railroad companies in the 1800s had to calculate 'brakeages' as a major operational cost—excessive braking wore out brakepads so quickly that it became a science of its own!
