Abstract:
A reinforcement apparatus for reinforcing a structure comprising at least one pier bearing on foundations, a cross-beam bearing on said pier and at least one structure element located above the cross-beam, the reinforcement apparatus comprising at least one column ( 20 ) destined to surround the pier at least partly, to be mechanically coupled to the pier and to bear on said foundations, and at least one transverse beam ( 22 ) fixed relative to the column and destined to be mechanically coupled to the cross-beam, and at least one load transfer element ( 36 ) arranged on an upper face of said at least one transverse beam ( 22 ) to take up at least part of the load of the structure element.

Claim (Index 14):
A method of building a reinforcement apparatus for reinforcing a structure, the structure comprising at least one pier bearing on foundations, a cross-beam bearing on the pier and at least one structure element located above the cross-beam, the reinforcement apparatus comprising at least one column to surround the pier at least partly, to be mechanically coupled to the pier and to bear on the foundations, and at least one transverse beam fixed relative to the column and to be mechanically coupled to the cross-beam, the method comprising:\n forming the transverse beam, lifting the transverse beam towards the cross-beam, forming at least part of the column such that at least part of the column bears on the foundations, including arranging the at least part of the column and the transverse beam in a fixed relative position, mechanically coupling the at least part of the column to the pier to form the column and mechanically coupling the transverse beam to the cross-beam.
