Dataset from the literature on fatigue behavior of lime- and/or cement-treated soils

DOI

A database was created to compile fatigue test results of treated soils from the literature. This collection aims to centralize and organize existing data to facilitate analysis and comparison of different soil treatment methods and their performances under repeated loading conditions.

The database consists of the results of 410 laboratory tests carried out in the context of linear infrastructure projects, reported in 11 articles published between 1984 and 2021.

Due to its structured format of the collected information, the database offers potential for reuse in various applications, such as comparative studies, data-driven modeling.

27 parameters have been extracted. Bibliographic identification Title of the article Journal Publication date Physical parameters USCS (ASTM, 2020): The letters of the USCS mean G for gravel, S for sand, M for silt and C for clay.
Simplified USCS, (Only the first letter is selected, e.g., SC becomes S) Gravel content (%): percentage of gravel particles (Φ>4.75 mm) with Φ the diameter of the grain
Sand content (%): percentage of sand particles (0.075mm < Φ < 4.75 mm)
Fine particles content (%): percentage of silt and clay particles (Φ <0.075 mm) Plasticity index (%) (PI) (AFNOR, 1993) Liquid limit (%) (LL) (AFNOR, 1993) Plastic limit (%) (PL) (AFNOR, 1993) Soil treatment Cement content (%): percentage of mass of cement in a specimen Cement classification (CEM I, CEM II, CEM III) (AFNOR. 2012): CEM I corresponds to a hydraulic binder with at least 95% clinker and less than 5% secondary component. CEM II has at least 65% clinker and a maximum of 35% of other components like blast furnace slag, and fly ash. CEM III has between 36 to 80% blast-furnace slag, and 20 to 64% of clinker.
Lime content (%): percentage of lime in a specimen Extra treatment (adding other binders like fibers) Curing duration (days): the time between the treatment and compaction of soil specimen, and the loads beginning. Curing temperature (°C): the temperature of the room where the sample is stored during the curing duration
Extra curing condition (adding another condition like immersion in water) Specimen characteristics Volume (〖cm〗^3) Density (〖g/cm〗^3) Water content (%) Compaction methods Test conditions Type of test Frequency (Hz) SR (Stress Ratio) (-), The ratio between applied stress (σ_app) during the test and failure stress (σ_max) in a monotonic test Experimental results Number of cycles to failure (Nf) (-)
