The combustion chamber wall consists of tubes which are inclined to the horizontal and which are welded to one another in a gas-tight relationship via webs. Pairs of vertical tension strips bear against the outside of the combustion chamber wall. Each pair is connected to the wall tubes via a plurality of sheet-metal strips distributed over the height of the combustion chamber wall. The sheet-metal strips are disposed perpendicularly to the combustion chamber wall plane and are cut out in the form of a comb at the edge connected to the wall tubes.
