Abstract
Process for reinforcing a construction structure where, laid on one portion of said structure, is at least one portion of a reinforcement (10) of elongated shape comprising continuous fibers in the longitudinal direction of said reinforcement, which are combined with a polymer matrix, wherein said process comprises a step of removing the polymer matrix in one portion (20) of the reinforcement so as to release the fibers of the reinforcement in order to allow their rearrangement following their release from the polymer matrix. It is thus possible to optimize the binding configuration of the reinforcement with a portion of the structure to be reinforced.
