Abstract
A protective wall structure having a high resistance to blast and fragments includes two spaced groups of panels of sheet metal in interlocking relationship and defining each of the two opposite faces of the wall structure, a plurality of diagonal panels extending diagonally in saw-tooth configuration between the face panels and in interlocking relationship with them, and a filling material of concrete or asphalt filling the space between the face panels and embedding the diagonal panels therein.
Claims10
A protective wall structure having a high resistance to blast and fragments, characterized in that it includes;
- two spaced groups of panels of rigid metal sheets, the sheets of each group having ends in interlocking relationship with the ends of the adjacent sheets of the respective group and defining therewith each of the two opposite faces of the wall structure, the interlocking ends of one group of face panels being non-aligned with the interlocking ends of the other groups of face panels;
- a plurality of diagonal panels of rigid metal sheets extending diagonally between the face panels and having ends in interlocking relationship with each of the interlocking ends of the face panels;
- and a filling material filling the space between the face panels and embedding the diagonal panels therein.
The wall structure according to claim 6, wherein all said diagonal panels are of the same configuration, each including a single, acute-angle bend at one end, and a double bend at the opposite end, the inner bend of which forms an obtuse angle to the panel and the outer bend of which forms an acute angle to the inner bend.
