Abstract
This data paper presents the quasi-static uniaxial cyclic tests of 24 reinforced concrete members, of which 22 feature lap splices and 2 are reference units with continuous reinforcement. The objective of the experimental program is to investigate the influence of lap splice length ( ls), confining reinforcement, and loading history on the behavior of lap splices. Particular attention is placed on the measurement of local deformation quantities, such as lap splice strains and rebar-concrete slip. Details of the geometry and reinforcement layout of the specimens as well as the employed test setup, instrumentation, and loading protocols are provided. The global behavior of the test units, including the observed crack pattern and failure modes, are discussed. The organization of the experimental data, which are made available for public use under DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1205887, is outlined in detail.
