1. Methodological information:

o Description of methods used for data collection and Generation
The data was collected while condurcting loading tests on concrete timber Composite beams with regular reinforced concrete, as well as textile reinforced concrete overlays.
The load was forcecontrolled using a hydraulic pump an eight Hydraulik Jacks. Data comes from load cells and LVTDs, as well as strain gauges set alongside the specimens during testing. A plan showing where the specific measurements were placed is added to the data called Measuring_overview_load_tests.pdf. 
Measurement was set Zero and started after the specimen was placed on the loadcells. Thus dead load of the specimen and experimental test setup is excluded.

o Description of methods used for data processing
The data was exported directly from he measurement as .txt-files and used for calculations of the results. The Pressing of the specimen at the supports was substracted from Deformation in geometrical linear Assumtion.

o software or instrument-specific Information
to process the data Matlab R2024b was used.

o Definitions of codes and Symbols
The data for every specimen are numbered according to the sequence of testing as well as RC for reinforced concrete and TRC for Textile Reinforced Concrete.


2. Data-specific information:

o Count of number of variables, and number of cases or rows
A total number of 2 specimens were tested. 31 Variables were measured during tsting
