Method for the Improvement of the Elasticity Module of Concrete Specimens by Active Confinement

The purpose of this work is to improve the modulus of elasticity of reinforced concrete pillars in the area where it is known with certainty that the concrete is elastic. To achieve this, an innovative method was devised to introduce an initial tension (<inline-formula> <math display="...
