- Tyre for a heavy duty civil engineering type vehicle, comprising: - a crown reinforcement, radially on the inside of a tread and radially on the outside of a carcass reinforcement; - the crown reinforcement comprising a protective reinforcement, a working reinforcement and a hooping reinforcement; - the protective reinforcement, which is radially outermost in the crown reinforcement, comprising at least one protective layer (51, 52), the protective layer (51, 52) comprising metal reinforcers that form an angle at least equal to 10° with a circumferential direction (XX') tangential to the circumference of the tyre; - the working reinforcement comprising at least two working layers (61, 62), each working layer (61, 62) comprising metal reinforcers that form an angle at least equal to 15° and at most equal to 45° with the circumferential direction (XX') and are crossed from one working layer to the next; - the hooping reinforcement having an axial width at most equal to the smallest axial width (L61, L62) of the two working layers (61, 62), comprising at least two hooping layers (71, 72) that are formed from strips each made up of elastic metal reinforcers that form an angle at most equal to 2.5° with the circumferential direction (XX'); - said strips having an axial width L8 and a circumferential distributed breaking tension Nr; - characterized in that each hooping layer (71, 72) is made up of an axial juxtaposition of contiguous turns of a strip, which are circumferentially wound around the first working layer, radially innermost in the working reinforcement, in that the strip comprises at least 8 and at most 30 parallel, consecutive metal reinforcers coated in an elastomeric compound, and in that the distributed breaking tension Nr of the strip, in the circumferential direction, is at least equal to 100 daN/mm. - a crown reinforcement, radially on the inside of a tread and radially on the outside of a carcass reinforcement; - the crown reinforcement comprising a protective reinforcement, a working reinforcement and a hooping reinforcement; - the protective reinforcement, which is radially outermost in the crown reinforcement, comprising at least one protective layer (51, 52), the protective layer (51, 52) comprising metal reinforcers that form an angle at least equal to 10° with a circumferential direction (XX') tangential to the circumference of the tyre; - the working reinforcement comprising at least two working layers (61, 62), each working layer (61, 62) comprising metal reinforcers that form an angle at least equal to 15° and at most equal to 45° with the circumferential direction (XX') and are crossed from one working layer to the next; - the hooping reinforcement having an axial width at most equal to the smallest axial width (L61, L62) of the two working layers (61, 62), comprising at least two hooping layers (71, 72) that are formed from strips each made up of elastic metal reinforcers that form an angle at most equal to 2.5° with the circumferential direction (XX'); - said strips having an axial width L8 and a circumferential distributed breaking tension Nr; - characterized in that each hooping layer (71, 72) is made up of an axial juxtaposition of contiguous turns of a strip, which are circumferentially wound around the first working layer, radially innermost in the working reinforcement, in that the strip comprises at least 8 and at most 30 parallel, consecutive metal reinforcers coated in an elastomeric compound, and in that the distributed breaking tension Nr of the strip, in the circumferential direction, is at least equal to 100 daN/mm.
