The secondary impermeable barrier of a vertical wall includes a first impermeable sheet at the top of the wall and a connecting device which impermeably connects the first impermeable sheet to the loadbearing structure. The connecting device includes a first metal plate parallel to the first impermeable sheet, and a second impermeable sheet which is on the one hand bonded to the first impermeable sheet, and on the other hand connected to the first metal plate.
