reenforcing
Bolstering the structure
Reenforcing is an alternate spelling of reinforcing—adding strength, support, or emphasis to something.
You reenforce a wall by adding structural support, or reenforce a point by repeating it with additional evidence.
The spelling with one e is less common than reinforcing but appears in older texts and some contemporary usage.
