## Concrete Compressive Strength Data Set
### Estimate compressive strength of concrete
---
![](123.jpg)
---
This *intermediate* level data set has 1030 rows and 9 columns.
Concrete is the most important material in civil engineering. The concrete compressive strength is a highly nonlinear function of age and ingredients
The actual concrete compressive strength (MPa) for a given mixture under a specific age (days) was determined from laboratory. Data is in raw form (not scaled).
This data set is recommended for learning and practicing your skills in **exploratory data analysis**, **data visualization**, and **regression modelling techniques**.
It also allows you to practice with non-linear functions. Feel free to explore the data set with multiple **supervised** and **unsupervised** learning techniques. The Following data dictionary gives more details on this data set:
