    Value of the data
    Data, materials and methods Three types of data are presented in this data article and are available in Supplementary files. First the lifecycle inventories for each shelter, this data represents the amount of construction material need to construct each shelter. Moreover this data present the transport distance that each amount of material was transported form its production site to the construction site. Second, Assessment results: this data presents the performance of each shelter on the proposed assessment categories Environment, Cost, and Risk and are associated to the article “Global or local construction materials for post-disaster reconstruction? Sustainability assessment of 20 post-disaster shelter designs” [5]. Finally, the contribution to environmental impacts. This data represent the contribution that each building component, foundation, structure, walls, roof and transport of construction material produces on the overall environmental impact and it cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride is related to the article article “Global or local construction materials for post-disaster reconstruction? Sustainability assessment of 20 post-disaster shelter designs” [5]. Finally, a digital representation of the shelters is provided.
    Methods The methodology to produce the data here presented is described on the article “Global or local construction materials for post-disaster reconstruction? Sustainability assessment of 20 post-disaster shelter designs” [5].
    Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank the students that took part in the BSc and MSc Project in 2013-14 that contributed to this project. In addition, we thank the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies for support and advice. Finally, we thank EcoSur for their invaluable contributions to this research and HILTI AG for their long-term support in the development of the present research project.
    Value of the data Data, experimental design, materials and methods A new material suitable for the structural repair of concrete pavements has been developed at Coventry University exhibiting high flexural, shear and bond strengths and high resistance to reflection cracking; at the same time demonstrating unique “placeability” and “compactability” properties. There are many different products of the PVA family. A particular PVA was used by Hughes and Lubis [2] to modify cement mortar (MCM). High flexural strength and high bond strength with the steel reinforcement were achieved using a small roller compactor in the laboratory. Details about the PVA product, such as its name and manufacturer, are not available in their paper. In this study, two PVA products, GH-17S and NH-18S, supplied by NIPPON GOHSEI [3] of Japan, were experimentally investigated. For more details please see reference Karadelis and Lin [6].

    Introduction Asia has always led world production of cultivated shrimp with a market value of billions of US dollars per year. India is ranked among the top five shrimp farming countries globally. It is one of the largest producers of the black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon in the world. It contributed 21% and 44% by volume and value, respectively to Indian seafood exports in 2008–09. Current estimates predict that up to 40% of tropical shrimp production (>$3bn) is lost annually, mainly due to viral pathogens for which standard preventative measures (e.g. such as vaccination) are not feasible. In 1996 and 1997 WSSV was more disastrous, with cumulative lost export revenue estimated at 1 billion US dollars [7]. The white spot disease (WSD) has rapidly spread to different regions of the world with an economic impact approaching US$ 10 billion. In shrimp culture the WSSV is one of the most devastating viruses infecting penaeid shrimp. White spot viral disease has caused high mortalities and severe damage to the shrimp culture industry in India. This virus affects all life stages of P. monodon and mortality rate can reach 100% within 3–9 days of the onset of clinical signs [21]. The white spot disease virus is believed to have been transmitted through seed brought to India clandestinely from Southeast Asian countries, where the virus has been amplified before. WSSV has been recorded from a wide range of wild crustaceans including crabs, lobsters and shrimp [21,20,42,30,12] as well as hatchery reared post-larvae from Asia [11,29,39].
