The data consists of mechanical data (load, displacement, confining pressure, strain gauge data), ultrasonic data (AE source locations and arrival times, sensor locations, arrival times of active acoustic surveys), and scanning electron microscope images of the samples after shear failure. Dataset contains all data necessary to evaluate the results presented in the paper entitled: 'Off-fault damage characterisation during and after experimental quasi-static and dynamic rupture in crystal rock from laboratory P-wave tomography and microstructures' by Aben, Brantut, and Mitchell, Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth.

In situ ultrasonic measurements were performed during rock deformation by 16 in-house manufactured PZT transducers, connected to a pulser-amplifier and digital oscilloscopes. Post-mortem thin sections were studied by SEM at UCL's Earth Sciences department.
