Structures made from vehicle tyres
A structure comprising a vertical stack of tyres 10 having a waterproof membrane extending through the centre of at least two tyres for containing a body of water. The tyres may be whole tyres, or tyre parts forming annular shapes. Stacks may form part of a wall of a building, flood defences, foundations or a rain water storage tank. The membrane may be a deformable plastic bag having annular grooves 32. Also claimed is a structure comprises tyres stacks, the space between stacks being reinforced, for example by filling with reinforced concrete, pillars or other solid material. Tyres may be connecter together via clips mounted to adjacent tyre rims, and tyre stacks may be connected via ties extending between the clips in adjacent stacks. Also claimed is a tie, a clip, a membrane and a kit of parts containing ties and clips for use with tyre stacks.
