(54) Wall of pre-cast panels, particulary for earth-retaining and for building liquid-holding tanks


(57) The wall is adapted to structurally cooperate with a cast-in-place, reinforced-concrete foundation bed, each panel comprising a facing and a back rib at right angles to the facing and integral therewith; the facing and the rib extending downwardly into substantially tripod-arranged support members.
According to the invention, each panel further comprises:

- three levelling screws in said support members for adjusting the plumbing of the panel, and adapted to cooperate with corresponding first metal plates buried in a support floor of pre-cast concrete;

- second metal plates integral with said support members, adapted to cooperate with angle members which are welded to said first and second plates for provisionally stabilizing the panel;

- portions of bare reinforcement extending between said support members, adapted to be buried in the casting of the foundation bed;

- cylindrical hinge couplings with vertical axis and conjugated profiles, provided at the edges of said facing;

- a web at the outside edge of the rib, adapted to act both as a tie and as a strut, depending on the direction of the stresses acting on the wall.
