A web-based data warehouse (DW) has been developed to collect, categorize, analyse and share data on composite materials applied to masonry buildings. The aim of this work is to provide an adaptable and dynamic research tool to help researchers to homogenise information in existing testing procedures, still far from being exhaustive, and to suggest technical recommendations, still not existing. This tool gathers mechanical, geometrical and descriptive parameters from case studies and publications on experimental and numerical activities. A brief description of the selection criteria of such parameters is presented, followed by a detailed description of the structure, technology and output possibilities of the DW. This tool has been developed within the activity of the RILEM Technical Committee 223-MSC and is now available on-line and open to public contributors authorised by the TC.

Abstract
A web-based data warehouse (DW) has been developed to collect, categorize, analyse and share data on composite materials applied to masonry buildings. The aim of this work is to provide an adaptable and dynamic research tool to help researchers to homogenise information in existing testing procedures, still far from being exhaustive, and to suggest technical recommendations, still not existing. This tool gathers mechanical, geometrical and descriptive parameters from case studies and publications on experimental and numerical activities. A brief description of the selection criteria of such parameters is presented, followed by a detailed description of the structure, technology and output possibilities of the DW. This tool has been developed within the activity of the RILEM Technical Committee 223-MSC and is now available on-line and open to public contributors authorised by the TC.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
