OSTI ID:5299553
A method for evaluating the liquefaction potential of level sandy sites subjected to earthquake loads on the basis of anticipated cyclic shear strains is proposed. The data include tests as well as test results. A method is proposed by which the maximum tangent shear modulus, which can be measured by shear-wave propagation velocities, can be used to predict liquefaction potential.
