Datasets for liquefaction case studies of gravelly soils during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake.

ABSTRACT: This Data in Brief article provides summarized information of the liquefaction case histories from the 12 May 2008 M _w7.9 Wenchuan earthquake. According to the data processing procedures recommended in the related research article, all eighty-one case histories investigated by the present authors and seven other case histories from the literature are carefully compiled. All necessary information and the mean and standard deviation for some key parameters are given for these liquefaction case histories (i.e., site name, site location, site inclination angle, liquefaction manifestations, critical layer, soil sampling information, ground motion, total and effective stresses, shear-mass participation parameter, cyclic stress ratio (CSR) for M _w=7.5, normaliz
