General description of data: 

Strain data collected during the casting and curing of a concrete deck on a single span prestressed concrete rail-over-water bridge near Stafford UK.
The data was collected for the ME01 project being carried out in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge. 
The ME01 project is a fibre optic instrumentation and dynamic monitoring programme at Norton Bridge, UK, part of the Stafford Area Improvements Programme 
(Staffordshire Alliance). The strain data was collected using fibre optic monitoring technologies based on fibre Bragg gratings.

Location: Stafford Area Improvements Programme, Norton Bridge, Staffordshire

Instrumented elements names: Central Interior TY7 Beam, BM5 - Underbridge 11 and Midspan deck and transverse ties
Instrumented element type: 11.6 m prestressed concrete TY7 beam; cast-in-situ concrete deck and infill concrete with transverse ties
Bridge name: Underbridge 11
Bridge type: Single span prestressed concrete with cast-in-situ deck rail-over-water bridge
