Value of the data

   

The The The The

data presented herein can be used to investigate the effects of different length of staple fiber. dataset can be used by others to investigate further properties of staple wire fiber. data presented herein may be used to develop new methods by using different fibers. research data may be helpful for manufacturing commercially sustainable building products.

1. Data The dataset presented herein were obtained from the physical and mechanical tests for various volume proportions of staple wire fiber blended with high volume fly ash (HVFA) and cement. The data provides in this article composed of pure cement paste composites. The detailed of the dataset presented here can be found in [1]. Additionally, the existing models proposed by others [2,3] were used to check the applicability for staple wire HVFA cement paste composites. The regression analysis of test data for 336 samples were used to predict physico-mechanical properties of the staple wirereinforced paste composites.

2. Experimental design, materials and methods The water-to-cement (w/c) ratio was kept constant at 39.5% for all mixtures, as optimized in a previous research [4,5]. The data presented here examined 80% fly ash, 20% cement, and staple fiber ranging from 0% to 3.5% by volume of paste. Different HVFA cement paste mixes were experimentally examined, and mixes which showed the best performance were chosen for the previous research

Previous equations for spacing proposed by other researchers [2,3] have been used to check their validity of volume of staple wire fiber of high volume fly ash cement paste composites. Additionally, based on the ACI report [6] and ASTM standards [7,8], alternative areas of application of this
