Abstract
A non-woven sheet () comprises at least one zone of reinforcement () in which fibers and/or filaments constituting the sheet are bonded together in a reinforcing pattern () comprising a plurality of geometric shapes (), the zone of reinforcement extending over the entire length (L) of the sheet measured in the longitudinal direction (X), and over a width (l, l) strictly less than the width (l) of the sheet () measured in a lateral direction (Y) orthogonal to the longitudinal direction (X). The sheet () thus further comprises at least one non-reinforced zone (). Because of the bonding between the fibers and/or filaments, the elongation of the reinforced zone () under the effect of a given force exerted in a longitudinal direction of the sheet () is less than the elongation of the non-reinforced zone under the effect of the same force. Such a sheet () may be used in particular for fabricating a laminated assembly.
