Bracing device for securing a facing

A bracing device for securing at least one facing panel in front of a structure, the bracing device comprising:

• a mounting plate equipped with a bearing face which is planar overall, against which the facing panel can bear, said bearing face having at least one transverse dimension greater than or equal to 30 mm, and
• a body extending in an axial direction and equipped, at a front end, with means for securing it to the mounting plate and, at a rear end opposite to the front end, with means for securing it to the structure,
• wherein the body at its front end comprises a shank extending in the axial direction, and the mounting plate is designed to be engaged on said shank via a mounting opening formed in said mounting plate,
• wherein the means for securing the mounting plate to the shank comprise primary ribs formed at a periphery of a portion of said shank and the mounting plate has at least one secondary rib projecting toward the inside of the mounting opening, the secondary rib being designed to collaborate with the primary ribs for blocking said mounting plate on the shank in terms of translation movement in the axial direction, and
• wherein the bracing device is adapted for having a layer of thermal and/or acoustic insulation speared onto the bracing device or interposed between a plurality of the bracing devices.
