Each SRB consisted of 11 cylindrical steel sections. After flight and recovery, these were dismantled, refilled with solid rocket fuel as appropriate, and then reconnected to form a new SRB with all of the O-rings, etc.

So also a complete rebuild, with reuse occurring at the segment level, not of the whole booster assembly.
