- 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 , the protective layer 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 , each working layer 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 , comprising at least two hooping layers 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 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 , the protective layer 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 , each working layer 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 , comprising at least two hooping layers 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 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. <EOS>
