i cant attach the file as it is too big.

This isn't a single surface. All the little triangles are individual surfaces, stitched together into one surface body.

That is unlikely to ever thicken. Directly converting a triangulated mesh file into a BRep is a bad idea in most use cases!

 

If you want to 3D print it, it might be easier to use Meshmixer for the thickening.
