Abstract
The invention relates to a tire having a radial carcass reinforcement comprising a crown reinforcement formed of at least two working crown layers of reinforcement elements, which are crossed from one layer to the other, forming with the circumferential direction angles of between 10° and 45°, which itself is topped radially by a tread, said tread being joined to two beads by means of two sidewalls and the crown reinforcement comprising between two working crown plies at least one additional ply of reinforcement elements. According to the invention, the axial ends of the reinforcement element working ply radially closest to the carcass reinforcement are turned up to cover the axial ends of a working crown ply radially external to the additional ply.
