of roving 32 is splayed out against textile 20 and attached to textile 20 with a suitable adhesive 36 one preferred method of practicing the invention is to first attach textile 20 to surface 113 then to attach free end 33 over textile 20 such that free end 33 is attached with adhesive 36 to the outer surface of textile 20 a second preferred method of practicing the invention is to attach free end 33 directly to surface 113 of wall 110 then to attach textile 20 with adhesive such that free end 33 is attached to the inner surface of textile 20 in the exemplary embodiment of the illustrations a plurality of fiber anchors are shown as arrayed along the sill of wall 110 with boreholes 31 drilled into slab 130 the combination of textile 20 and fiber anchors 30 provide a strong ductile connection between slab 130 and wall 110 reinforcing wall 110 against being disconnected from slab 130 by strong lateral force such as from an earthquake perhaps more importantly textile 20 increases the ductility of surface 113 of wall 110 making gypsum board 112 unlikely to rupture catastrophically to reinforce connection among floors of a structure anchors 30 may be installed such that borehole 31 is drilled into a frame member 115 of an adjacent floor for example borehole 31 may be drilled upwardly into a support member 115 of the floor above in this case free end 33 would extend downward and be splayed against an upper portion of surface 113 of wall 110 it is also within the scope of the present invention to.
