ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for reinforcing an external surface of a stationary vertical column with a reinforcing material includes a supply of a reinforcing material and a guide that directs the reinforcing material from the supply onto the stationary vertical column. A winding device moves the guide means in a spiral pattern relative to the stationary vertical column, to wind spiral layers of the reinforcing material onto the vertical column. The winding device is provided as a multipart structure that may be assembled around the vertical column and later disassembled to permit removal from around the vertical column. In one approach, the reinforcing material is tows of a curable composite material that are wound onto the vertical column and later cured in place after the winding device is removed.
