Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a protective structure for the protection against moving masses, namely avalanches, rockfalls, mudslides and loggings, having a plurality of ballast-filled wall elements, which are arranged in a manner adjacent to each other and spaced apart on a bearing surface, and having a respective connection arrangement between two adjacent wall elements which connects the two adjacent wall elements and enables relative movement between the two wall elements. The wall elements are movable in relation to the bearing surface and in relation to each other by the moving mass, namely avalanche, rockfall, mudslide or logging, for dissipative energy conversion.
