The Concrete Grand Challenge Experimental Database is a community-driven initiative aimed at creating a comprehensive, curated, and machine-readable experimental database for concrete and related infrastructure materials. The goal is to support the calibration, validation, and benchmarking of computational models through standardized, traceable, and reusable experimental data contributed by researchers, laboratories, industry, and government agencies worldwide.

​

The initiative seeks to transform fragmented experimental datasets into a unified and interoperable scientific infrastructure capable of supporting predictive modeling, uncertainty quantification, digital twins, AI-assisted scientific discovery, and next-generation engineering simulations. This webpage provides instructions for the curation and submission of experimental datasets. 

​

The structure, terminology, parametrization schemes, controlled vocabularies, and data standards adopted by the database are being developed and continuously refined through the collaborative efforts of the Concrete Grand Challenge Working Group, which brings together researchers and experts from academia, industry, and government laboratories.
