Claim:
A liquid-retaining wall comprising two consecutive vertically disposed prefabricated panels, assembly means for assembling together said two consecutive panels, a low belt on one side of said panels, which supports the panels and which comprises two consecutive low section members, and a high belt on an opposite side of said panels, which is fitted to the panels and which comprises two consecutive high section members substantially in the form of channel section gutters, the assembly means holding together said two consecutive panels while allowing one of them to move angularly relative to the other about a vertical axis, an angle-determining element for ensuring that said two consecutive panels are at a determined angular orientation relative to each other as a function of the outline of the wall to be made, and further including reinforcing means for stiffening said two consecutive panels once they have been assembled to one another, wherein said panels are planar and are equally suitable for including in a rectilinear or a curved portion of the outline of the wall, and wherein said angle-determining element comprises a plane part presenting two horizontal arms that are respectively mounted on two consecutive section members of the low belt and/or of the high belt and that form a determined angle relative to each other to shape the angle between said two consecutive panels.
