Definitions

  • This invention relates to an assembly device intended for anchoring a stabilising element to a unit panel which is used in the construction of reinforced soil structures.
  • the technique of reinforce soil construction involves the embedding of stabilising elements into a mass of soil material to give the mass a required degree of stability in tension, in addition to the natural stability of compression of the mass.
  • the type of stabilising elements used and the number and disposition of the elements for a particular soil structure depend on the size of the structure and the characteristics of the soil.
  • a wide range of soil materials such as stones, gravels, sands, earth, ashes, slags, shales, etc. are known for possible use in reinforced soil structures.
