Simulated data on bond of steel reinforcement in self-compacting concrete

In this paper, the data were simulated using the bond model, proposed in a previously published research article of the author, to predict the peak bond stress in self-compacting concrete (SCC). The parameters considered were the concrete compressive strength, the geometrical properties of the reinforcing bar, and the confining reinforcement. The data consisted of 500 simulations for various concrete grades (C12, C16, C20, C25, C30, C35, C40, C45, and C50) and reinforcing bar diameters (10, 12, 16, 20, and 25 mm). Exploratory data analysis (EDA) was conducted and descriptive statistics were used to analyse all the data and some subsets of interest. These data can be reused in a finite element analysis software to explicitly model the bond between SCC and reinforcing bars through point-to-point or surface-to-surface contact.
