A two-layer multi-strand cord () has a modulus EC such that 50 GPa≤EC≤160 GPa. The cord comprises: (a) an internal layer (CI) of the cord made up of J>1 internal strands (TI) wound in a helix having a modulus EI, each internal strand (TI) comprising: an internal layer (C1) made up of Q≥1 internal threads (F1), and an external layer (C2) made up of N>1 external threads (F2) wound around the internal layer (C1), and (b) an external layer (CE) of the cord made up of L>1 external strands (TE) wound around the internal layer (CI) of the cord, each external strand (TE) comprising: an internal layer (C1′) made up of Q′≥1 internal threads (F1′), and an external layer (C2′) made up of N′>1 external threads (F2′) wound around the internal layer (C1′).
