Dataset of raw experiments data of large triaxial-experiments

This data set contains the measurement data of 20 large-scale triaxial (permeability included) tests carried out. Synthetic sand-lime bricks (KS XL) from the Silka company and the natural Nievelstein sandstone were sampled. The samples have a size of about 25 cm in diameter and a height of 45 cm. The experiments where carried out at the Chair of Geotechnical Engeneering at the RWTH Aachen University in Germany.

The following data were recorded for the rock samples:

geomechanical probe properties

size and weight

density (dry and wet)

porosity

permeability coefficient

uniaxial strength

During the tests the following data were recorded:

axial strain

confining and axial pressure

fluid pressure

fluid flow through specimen

temperatures

Data sets are stored in a MySQL-Database. Data sets can be interpreted with the devloped Triaxial Test Evaluation Tool.
