Actually, this is a definition.
Odile Raymond (asker) Nov 11, 2015:
Thanks, Tony. Here is additional context:
One of the vertical braces is located at the front column vertical plane and the second at the rear column vertical plane.
Tony M Nov 11, 2015:
@ Asker I would understand it more as a gerund form: "How to go about the action of bracing the towers"

I don't see anything in your context to suggest that there are special towers that are used for bracing.

Selected

échelle de renfort

It sounds rather like a sort of 'ladder' structure, with two vertical members and a number of cross-pieces.
Note from asker:
I had found this page here, and the term "échelle" is used indeed (see diagram at bottom of page). http://www.gravittax.fr/stockage/stockage-statique/rayonnage-statique-palettes/. Thanks a lot!
