DocumeNDT Uniaxial Compression Strength (UCS) Tests dataset

This repository contains the raw data obtained from the Uniaxial Compression Strength (UCS) tests performed on six stone masonry walls at the laboratory of the Eduardo Torroja Institute for Construction Sciences (IETCC), from the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC).

The data set is structured in 6 folders corresponding to the 6 tested stone masonry walls (Walls 1-6). Each folder contains:
    (1) Position of each LVDT during the test (plan view "PositionLVDTs.jpg)
    (2) Elevations A and B (long sides), marked in plan
    (3) Recorded force and displacement data (*.csv file)
    (4) readme file with specific details about the test

Raw data (force and displacement) is provided in .csv files, structured in columns. First column corresponds to the Force measured (in kN) and columns 2-5 correspond to the displacement measured by each LVDT (in mm).

The frequency of acquisition is 1 samples/s.

The detailed geometry of all walls (including the inner position of each stone) is publicly available and can be found in https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7713700
