Abstract

This paper accompanies the paper titled “Experimental validation for the application of the flat jack test in cob walls” presented by the same authors to the Construction and Building Materials Journal [1]. It contains data collected during the consolidation process of six cob wallettes and data collected after single and double flat jack test were applied for the first time to a set of cob wallettes at the laboratory facilities of the Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering at Trinity College Dublin. The data served to estimate the value of the dimensionless geometrical efficiency constant, Ke, and cob´s mechanical properties, namely, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and compressive strength. The detailed information presented here may be of interest for verification and replicability purposes.
