Abstract
Numerical simulations have gained increasing importance in civil engineering in the recent past. The potential for research on the one hand and for practical application on the other hand is great. EN 1993-1-14 was developed to support users in the generation of numerical models, to provide security in the procedure and to achieve comparable results across the board. The accompanying publication of application examples is of extraordinary assistance. The data set presented in this article was also used to generate the benchmark examples No. 5 of Technical Report EN/TR 1993-1-141:2023 (E)_v2023-06 on EN 1993-1-14. Based on the data, the procedure for validating a numerical model on experimental component tests can be reproduced using a series of tests on cold-formed, C-shaped columns in axial compression. In this article, the measured imperfections of the test specimens and the recorded measured values during the test are first discussed in detail. The corresponding data are provided. Subsequently, the numerical models are provided and described as input files in the program language ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL). The entire data set can be used as an aid to generate numerical models according to the specifications of EN 1993-1-14.
