Abstract
A sheet-like element for reinforcing, separating and draining large structures such as road embankments, comprising a sheet-like body which has a lattice-like configuration with main wires and transverse wires stretched along two mutually substantially perpendicular directions, the main wires, i.e., in the extrusion direction of the blank that provides the sheet-like body, having a substantially quadrangular cross-section with substantially sharp edges at least at their upper rim.

A sheet-like element for reinforcing, separating and draining large structures such as road embankments, comprising a sheet-like body which has a lattice-like configuration with main wires and transverse wires stretched along two mutually substantially perpendicular directions, wherein said main wires, i.e., in an extrusion direction of a blank that provides said sheet-like body, have a substantially quadrangular cross-section and a thickness, in a direction that lies at right angles to a plane of arrangement of said sheet-like body, which is equal to at least three times a thickness of said transverse wires.
