The column includes an exterior perimeter surface portion extending between first and second intersections with the blocking structure so that the exterior perimeter surface portion is accessible from one side of the blocking structure. A first opening is formed in the column and/or the blocking structure. The first opening is located proximate the first intersection of the exterior perimeter surface portion of the column and the blocking structure. A portion of the first fiber anchor is inserted through the first opening. The first fiber anchor has at least a first end. The first end of the first fiber anchor is secured to the exterior perimeter surface portion of the column. An outer fibrous sheet is applied to the exterior perimeter surface portion.
