Benefits of technology

[0008]A molded block to achieve this object is a molded block of concrete for building a supporting wall which is in particular inclined to the vertical against an earth backfill and in which the individual molded blocks are arranged one above the other in layers, characterized in that the molded block is formed as a cavity block with at least one cavity or a vertically directed aperture, the, or essentially each, cavity or aperture being arranged in such a way that, with the molded blocks arranged offset in relation to one another in layers in a supporting wall, preferably the essentially load-transferring regions of the molded blocks arranged above or below one another are arranged essentially in line in the load-transferring direction. The fact that the molded block is formed as a cavity block with at least one cavity or a vertically directed aperture has the effect that the molded block has a lower weight than conventional molded blocks for building supporting walls. The molded block can consequently be laid more easily, in particular manually. Furthermore, it is provided that the, or essentially each, cavity or aperture is arranged in such a way that, with the molded blocks arranged offset in relation to one another in layers in a supporting wall, load-transferring regions of molded blocks arranged above or below one another are arranged essentially in line in the load-transferring direction. This configuration makes very large cavities or apertures possible, so that the molded blocks have a comparatively low weight. The applicant has recognized that, if the load-transferring regions are arranged in line in spite of the offset arrangement in layers, the entire load-transferring cross section can be used for dimensioning purposes, so that the remaining walls can be made relatively thin.
[0012]The supporting wall according to the invention is a supporting wall comprising molded blocks of concrete, which is preferably inclined to the vertical against an earth backfill and in which the individual molded blocks are arranged one above the other in layers, characterized in that the molded blocks according to the invention are used. The supporting wall thereby benefits from the advantages that can be achieved by using the molded blocks.

Problems solved by technology

However, laying is laborious, in particular with regard to the necessary anchoring measures to secure the supporting wall.

Embodiment Construction

[0030]Shown in the figures are on the one hand a molded block 20 of concrete (FIGS. 1 to 5) and on the other hand supporting walls 21 comprising such molded blocks (FIGS. 6 to 10). FIGS. 11 to 13 show laying variants of the molded block 20. The molded block 20 shown in FIGS. 1 to 5 is suitable for building walls of any type. The molded blocks 20 can be laid without mortar, for example as a vertical wall or the like, or as a supporting wall 21 with an inclination against an earth backfill 22.

[0031]The molded blocks 20 have in each case a number of upright side walls 23, 24, and also an essentially horizontally directed upper side 25 and underside 26. The molded blocks 20 are essentially trapezoidally formed in horizontal projection. In this case, two opposite side walls 24 are parallel to one another and two opposite side walls 23 converge toward one another.

[0032]The molded block 20 may be produced in conventional (concrete block) molds, so that the side walls 23, 34 are formed by u...

Abstract

The invention relates to a molded block (20) of concrete. The molded block (20) is suitable for building a supporting wall (21) which is inclined to the vertical against an earth backfill (22) and in which the individual molded blocks (20) are arranged one above the other in layers.The molded block (20) is formed as a cavity block in such a way that, with the molded blocks (20) arranged offset in relation to one another in layers in a supporting wall (21), the load-transferring regions of the molded blocks (20) arranged above or below one another are arranged essentially in line in the load-transferring direction.This makes it possible for supporting walls to be built from molded blocks with considerably larger apertures than in the prior art, with the same or greater load-bearing capacity.
