Shake-table Tests on Two 40-ton Reinforced Concrete U-shaped Walls with Uniaxial and Bidirectional-Torsional Response

Description

This dataset is a collection of data from the experimental campaign investigating the dynamic and torsional performance of reinforced concrete (RC) U-shaped walls. The experimental program was conducted at the National Laboratory for Civil Engineering (LNEC) in Lisbon, Portugal. Two half-scale RC U-shaped core wall specimens were tested on a bidirectional large shake table. The dataset includes: conventional data (i.e., potentiometers, LVDTs, accelerometers), virtual target tracking, motion capture with OptiTrack system, and Distributed Fibre Optic Sensors (DFOS). This dataset is published in conjunction with a Data Paper with Earthquake Spectra titled, "Shake-table Tests on Two 40-ton Reinforced Concrete U-shaped Walls with Uniaxial and Bidirectional-torsional Response".
