Popis: The cyclic shear behavior of frozen cement-treated soil–concrete interfaces is critical for analyzing soil–structure interfaces and foundation design in cold regions and artificially frozen ground. The cyclic shear behavior of the interface between frozen cement-treated sand and structure is investigated in this paper at various normal stresses and temperatures. Experimental results include the variation of the peak shear stress, peak normal displacement, shear stiffness with the number of cycles, and the relationship between peak shear stress and smoothness under certain conditions. Peak shear stresses of warm frozen cement-treated sand and cold frozen cement-treated sand varied with cycle number. Additionally, the former is significantly larger than the latter in the stable phase. The peak normal displacement showed the same results, indicating that the ice crystals formed on the surface and the strength of the frozen cement-treated sand have significant differences at various temperatures. The study’s findings aid in understanding the complexities of the cyclic shear behavior of frozen cement-treated sand and structure interfaces and provide references on frozen cement-treated sand zones in practical engineering.
