The invention relates to a building including a facing, a backfill at the back of the facing, synthetic reinforcement strips distributed in the backfill, and a connection system between the reinforcement strips and the backfill. The connection system includes fasteners having the shape of a continuous closed loop, each including two first portions for hooking to the facing and, alternating with the first portions along the closed loop shape, two second portions extending towards the back of the facing where they are folded back to form two loops inside of which at least one reinforcement strip extends.

Building with reinforced ground

A facing element () for reinforced soil structure comprising: &#x2014;first face () comprising at least a connecting member () configured to connect to said facing element at least one reinforcement member intended to reinforce the reinforced soil, &#x2014;a second face () on which at least a protective membrane is intended to be applied, said second face is opposed to the first face, said second face has an essentially plane surface and comprises at least a fixing portion, the fixing portion comprising: &#x2014;a contact surface () projecting from the plane surface of the second face, &#x2014;a fastening element () anchored in the facing element and&#x2014;a tightening element () engageable with the fastening element so as to fix the protective membrane between said tightening element and said contact surface.

Facing element for reinforced soil structure

Link device () between a facing element () of a reinforced ground construction work () and a longitudinal reinforcement (), intended to extend in a backfill (), which comprises a portion () for fixing to the facing element (), two connecting portions (), of which a first end of each of them is linked to a point of the fixing portion (), in which a second end of each connecting portion is linked to a first end of a first and of a second return portion (), in which the return portions () are substantially parallel to one another and in which a second end of each of the return portions is linked to a securing segment () substantially perpendicular to the return portions ().
