Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a structure, in particular a structure for supporting or protecting against falling rocks.
  • Structures are frequently used to stabilize land and protect people and property against possible damage caused by land movements or falling materials.
  • some are fixed to a slope such as a retaining wall or a net making it possible to stop falling masses such as rocks detached from a wall and offering good dissipation of kinetic energy.
  • These structures are fixed either by guy ropes or by bolts fixed in the slope.
  • Other structures are made up of a stack of blocks, materials or gabions and, by virtue of their mass, make it possible to hold back the ground or to stop the course of falling blocks.
  • the document EP 0 707 117 A describes a retaining wall of modular construction.
  • An aim of the invention is therefore to provide a structure which requires a small footprint, while being simple and quick to set up or to dismantle and while allowing good dissipation of the kinetic energy.
  • a structure in particular for supporting or protecting against falling materials, the structure comprising a metal frame and a plurality of blocks distributed in several levels superimposed in a vertical direction, each block having an upper face. and a lower face, each block having at least one upper cavity formed in the upper face and at least one lower cavity formed in the lower face, each upper cavity being connected to a lower cavity of the same block by a duct formed in the block, and the metal frame comprising a set of locking elements and a set of connecting elements, each locking element being accommodated jointly in the upper cavity of a block and in a corresponding lower cavity of a block of the level immediately above the block considered to prevent a relative horizontal translation of these two blocks, two blocking elements accommodated in upper and lower cavities of the same block, being fixed simultaneously to the same connecting element accommodated in the duct and exerting on the two locking elements considered a force tending to bring the locking elements closer to one another.
  • the blocks are effectively joined together to form a structure having great resistance, and requiring little footprint.
