The study uses multiaxial fatigue data for S355-J2G3 steel, with in-phaseand 90◦ out-of-phase sinusoidal axial-torsional straining in both the low cycle fatigue and high cyclefatigue ranges. The SKS damage parameter includes the effect of hardening, mean shear stress andthe interaction between shear and normal stress on the critical plane. The collapse and the predictioncapabilities of the SKS critical plane damage parameter are compared to well-established critical planemodels, namely Wang-Brown, Fatemi-Socie, Liu I and Liu II models. The differences between modelsare discussed in detail from the basis of the methodology and the life results. The collapse capacityof the SKS damage parameter presents the best results. The SKS model produced the second-bestresults for the different types of multiaxial loads studied.
