ABSTRACT:
A transportable assembly of composite reinforcing sleeves for reinforcing a support column includes a plurality of sleeves defining a discontinuity at lateral edges, wherein each sleeve comprises a plurality of first high tensile strength filaments extending parallel to one another, a plurality of second high tensile strength filaments extending parallel to one another at an angle to the first filaments, and a matrix of fully cured resin in which the first and second filaments are embedded. The sleeves are arranged concentrically and held together by the matrix, with a release film interposed between adjacent sleeves. Each sleeve terminates in edges which are spaced from one another to define a gap in said sleeve, the gaps of said sleeves being in alignment with one another.
