Dataset of 12,161 steel rebar tests from sudanese construction projects (2016-2022).

This data article describes a comprehensive dataset comprising 12,161 individual steel reinforcement bar tensile tests (3,898 test reports) collected from various construction projects across Sudan between 2016 and 2022. The data was systematically extracted from official test reports generated by the University of Khartoum, Faculty of Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, Material and Structures Testing Laboratory. The purpose of this dataset is to establish a verified, large-scale baseline of material performance for Sudanese reinforcement steel, providing transparent and verifiable raw values of key mechanical and dimensional properties for locally sourced rebars with tested diameters ranging from 8 mm to 32 mm. This data is intended for reuse to conduct rigorous analyses on steel reinforcement quality and characteristic properties in Sudan, offering a unique baseline for regional construction quality and providing a representative performance benchmark applicable to other developing countries.
