Abstract

A comprehensive global liquefaction database comprising 2833 historical records across 15 countries. Each record incorporates 6 soil parameters as well as 1 liquefaction indicator. The 6 soil parameters (including the ratio of overburden stress, normalized SPT blow number, normalized cone tip resistance, soil behavior index, normalized shear wave velocity, and fines content) cover three types of in-situ tests which are prevalent for liquefaction assessment. The liquefaction indicator parameter (denoted by L) indicates the liquefaction occurrence (i.e., L = 1 for a liquefaction record, and L = 0 for a non-liquefaction record). The seismic parameters such as moment magnitude (Mw) and peak ground acceleration (PGA) can be also found in the Excel file. The basic information of this database is summarized in the Supplementary Material.
