Steel Bar Mass Loss in Geopolymer Concrete

Mass loss measurements of a steel bar embedded in geopolymer concrete were collected by Jahanzeb Javed. The dataset supports research into the durability and environmental performance of sustainable concrete alternatives. It was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Model steel corrosion rates from mass loss data in geopolymer concrete.
• Correlate mass loss with other mechanical properties like compressive strength or ultrasonic pulse velocity.
• Assess environmental impact by linking material degradation data to life cycle assessment models.
• Train predictive models, such as artificial neural networks, to forecast steel bar performance in concrete mixes.

Strengths

• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
• Supports a published study demonstrating accurate predictive models (R² values of 0.96–0.99).

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 5.5 KB, indicating limited scope and likely a small number of observations.
• No column names or sample data are provided, limiting immediate usability.
