A data set from an extensive experimental benchmark study of the Hell Bridge Test Arena subject to imposed damage

A data set from an extensive experimental benchmark study of the Hell Bridge Test Arena (HBTA), a full-scale steel bridge subject to imposed damage, has been established. The data set includes organized dynamic response and load measurement data of the bridge under different structural state conditions, where the structural state conditions range from an undamaged (reference) state to known damage states. Furthermore, the data set includes acceleration and strain data from the response monitoring and acceleration data from the load monitoring, where a modal vibration shaker is used as an excitation source. The data is collected in one h5-file (hierarchical data format version 5) with a sampling rate of 100 Hz. Signal processing and resampling of the data has been performed according to the description provided in the references below. The data set is now published in this open-access data repository and can be accessed and downloaded freely. As such, the data set provides an important benchmark to the scientific community within bridge damage detection and SHM.本数据集源自针对赫尔桥试验场（Hell Bridge Test Arena, HBTA）开展的大规模试验基准研究，该试验场为一座可施加人为损伤的全尺寸钢制桥梁。数据集涵盖了该桥梁在不同结构状态下的标准化动态响应与荷载测量数据，结构状态覆盖从无损伤（基准）状态至已知损伤状态的全区间。此外，数据集还包含响应监测所得的加速度与应变数据，以及荷载监测所得的加速度数据，试验中采用模态振动台作为激励源。所有数据存储于单个H5文件（hierarchical data format version 5）中，采样率为100 Hz。数据的信号处理与重采样工作均按照下文参考文献中的说明完成。本数据集现已发布于该开放获取数据仓库，可免费访问并下载。因此，本数据集可为桥梁损伤检测与结构健康监测（Structural Health Monitoring, SHM）领域的科研界提供重要的基准测试支撑。
