Abstract
A retaining wall, in particular a retaining wall (24) inclined against a soil backfill, composed of individual shaped blocks (20, 21, 22, 23), the shaped blocks (20, 21, 22, 23) being arranged one above the other in layers (30) and the shaped blocks (20, 21, 22, 23) of adjacent layers (30) each engaging in a form-fitting manner with one another in the region of upper sides (25) and lower sides (26) of the shaped blocks (20, 21, 22, 23). Provision is made according to the invention for upper sides (25) and lower sides (26) of the shaped blocks (20, 21, 22, 23) to be designed and/or oriented in such a way that when lateral pressure is exerted transversely to an imaginary longitudinal axis of the retaining wall (24), individual layers (30) can be displaced in the corresponding direction. In order to produce the form-fitting engagement transversely to the longitudinal axis of the retaining wall, provision is preferably made for the shaped blocks (20, 21, 22, 23) to be provided in the region of the upper side (25) and the lower side (26) with respective form-fitting means, in particular projections and/or offsets and/or oblique faces (31).
