Splitting test experimental dataset of hollow concrete blocks.

ABSTRACT: Masonry structures are widely used nowadays for their advantages like low-cost workmanship, efficiency and fast construction techniques. The compressive strength of the materials that compose masonry (block and mortar) is very important to the behavior of the system, but the tensile strength is even more significant for the standards and building codes. In this work, a dataset for indirect tensile tests of hollow concrete blocks is obtained. Splitting tests as described in ASTM C-1006-13 are applied. Two sets of blocks were tested, one with medium compressive strength and the other with high compressive strength. The first set was tested in three directions named A, B, and C; the second one was tested in two directions, A and B. The data was collected with a servo-hydraulic machine. The data is presented in tables and can be used by material researchers, as well as in numerical modeling.

Acoustic Behavior of Hollow Blocks and Bricks Made of Concrete Doped with Waste-Tire Rubber.

Project description:In this paper, we investigate the acoustic behaviour of building elements made of concrete doped with waste-tire rubber. Three different mixtures were created, with 0%, 10%, and 20% rubber in their composition. Bricks, lattice joists, and hollow blocks were manufactured with each mixture, and three different cells were built and tested against aerial and impact noise. The values of the global acoustic isolation and the reduction of the sound pressure level of impacts were measured. Results proved that highly doped elements are an excellent option to isolate low frequency sounds, whereas intermediate and standard elements constitute a most interesting option to block middle and high frequency sounds. In both cases, the considerable amount of waste-tire rubber recycled could justify the employment of the doped materials for the sake of the environment.

Experimental dataset of nanoporous GaN photoelectrode supported on patterned sapphire substrates for photoelectrochemical water splitting.

Project description:GaN is one of the most promising materials for high PEC efficiency to produce clean, renewable hydrogen in an ecofriendly manner (Ebaid et al., 2015; Kamimura et al., 2017; Yang et al., 2018; Ohkawa et al., 2013). Trough assays of nanoporous gallium nitride (GaN) photoelectrode, we recently demonstrated an improved PEC efficiency and photocurrent density of nanoporous GaN photoelectrode by 470% times with respect to planar counterpart (Li et al., 2019). Here, we report original data acquired under UV-visible spectrometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), room temperature PL measurements and PEC measurements, based on the characterization of different sapphire substrate, different GaN samples and different GaN photoelectrodes. The optical properties and photoelectrochemical properties of the corresponding samples and possible mechanisms are presented, which is freely available (Li et al., 2019). The data can be valuable for researchers interested in photoelectrochemical water splitting, as well as to researchers developing fabrication of nanoporous photoelectrode.

Experimental and numerical dataset of Microbond test using optical fibres for strain.

Project description:This data article provides useful information often required for numerical modeling of the so-called microbond tests. It includes the experimental and simulation data of the microbond testing using Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) fibres for optical strains. Microbond testing was performed on five different droplets of varying embedded length and diameter to collect the data. Finite element simulation was carried out and modelling was validated, by using two variables force and strain, to collect the data. The output data of the fitted models is given and is also visualized via graphs of force-strain derivative curves. The data of the simulations is provided for different finite element mesh densities. Here, to clarify the type and form of the data for the use by readers, the energy distribution curves describing various functionalities of the droplet, fibre and interface are presented. For further reading, the interpretation and analysis of this data can be found in a research article titled "3D interfacial debonding during microbond testing: Advantages of local strain recording" (R. Dsouza et al., 2020) [1].

Experimental data on the development of "Post-installed Screw Pullout test" for in-situ investigation of concrete strength.

Project description:This data article describes the datasets obtained during the development phase of "Post-installed Screw Pullout (PSP) test", a new in-situ test for concrete strength assessment. The datasets presented focus on the results obtained in mortar samples. The presented PSP test method is based on a post-installed screw being pulled from the parent material. To implement this, the screws installed in mortar sample were loaded to failure and the responses were recorded in the form of load-displacement curves. The samples were tested for two types of screw under different test conditions, with variables that included hole depth, hole diameter and mortar strength. These datasets are associated with the article "The Post-installed Screw Pullout Test: Development of a Method for Assessing In-situ Concrete Compressive Strength" (Al-Sabah et al., 2020).

Experimental quantification of punching shear capacity for large-scale GFRP-reinforced flat slabs made of synthetic fiber-reinforced self-compacting concrete dataset.

Project description:This article provides experimental data on the punching shear behavior of synthetic fiber-reinforced slabs reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars and cast from self-consolidating concrete (SCC). The data was collected from tests performed on six full-scale specimens centrically loaded until failure as indicated by penetration of the column stub into the slab and achieving a sharp drop in the load carrying capacity. Three different reinforcement bar spacings were used to consider the effect of reinforcement ratio on punching shear resistance. Three of the specimens tested were reinforced by 1.25% of volume of synthetic fiber, and three were control specimens cast from regular SCC. Applied load, central deflections, and bar strain were monitored during the experiment and are provided in the supplementary data. Any future models for analyzing the punching shear behavior and capacity of flat slabs reinforced with GFRP rebars will find this data valuable for model validation, and for establishing suitable safety factors for design. Numerical studies on the simulation of fiber-reinforced concrete would also find value in this data to validate the numerical model and enable it to be used for further studies.

Dataset on the hygrothermal performance of a date palm concrete wall.

Project description:The present data article is concerned with the hygrothermal performance at the wall scale of a new bio-based building material including date palm fibres. A specific test setup allowed to measure temperature and relative humidity (RH) profiles at three different depths of the bio-based wall subjected to outdoor boundary conditions. Besides, a partial differential equations resolution software was then used to solve two mathematical models (i.e., Kunzel and Mendes models) describing heat and moisture transfer in porous building materials. Both experimental/simulated temperature and RH profiles are provided with this dataset article. The proposed experimental setup can be used for studying the hygrothermal performance of different kinds of bio-based building materials at wall scale, while experimental/numerical data can serve as reference values for the validation of mathematical models intended to describe heat and mass transfer.
