Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2007045340A1] The invention relates to a retaining wall, in particular a retaining wall (24) that is inclined against a soil backfill, consisting of individual purpose-made blocks (20, 21, 22, 23), the latter (20 .. 23) being arranged in layers (30) one on top of the other and the purpose-made blocks (20 .. 23) of neighbouring layers (30) interlocking in a positive fit in the vicinity of the upper (25) and lower faces (26) of said purpose-made blocks (20 .. 23). According to the invention, the upper (25) and lower faces (26) of the purpose-made blocks (20 .. 23) are configured and aligned in such a way that individual layers (30) can be displaced under a lateral pressure applied transversally to an imaginary longitudinal axis of the retaining wall (24) in a corresponding direction. To achieve the positive-fit connection transversally to the longitudinal axis of the retaining wall, the purpose-made blocks (20 .. 23) preferably comprise respective positive-fit elements in the vicinity of their upper (25) and lower faces (26), in particular projections and/or bevelled shoulders and/or oblique surfaces (31).
