Experimental data of dissipative embedded column base connections tested under cyclic lateral loading

This experimental dataset is comprised of the following items:

(a) the deduced experimental data of conventional/dissipative embedded column base connection specimens, which contains base moment, column drift ratio, and axial shortening responses (TestData.xlsx);

(b) photos of each specimen taken during cyclic loading (C-N-0_Test_Photos.7z, D-M1-1_Test_Photos.7z, D-M1-3_Test_Photos.7z, D-M1-5_Test_Photos.7z, D-M2-2_Test_Photos.7z);

(c) characteristic videos for each specimen that demonstrate the cyclic behavior (Test_Video.7z);

(d) Digital image correlation (DIC) images taken during cyclic loading to obtain strain fields near the steel column/reinforced concrete foundation interface (C-N-0_DIC_Photos.7z, D-M1-1_DIC_Photos.7z, D-M1-3_DIC_Photos.7z, D-M1-5_DIC_Photos.7z, D-M2-2_DIC_Photos.7z); 

(e) Videos that demonstrate strain fields of column flanges of both conventional and dissipative embedded column base connection specimens (DIC_Video.7z)
