Methods to estimate liquefactionpotential• Most commonly used liquefaction analysis:• “Simplified Procedure” by Seed & Idriss• Using SPT (Standard Penetration Test) data• Procedure:1. Check appropriate soil type (see before)2. Check whether soil below groundwater table(from borehole)3. Determine Cyclic Stress Ratio (CSR):1. Effective stress in soil: thickness, unit weight, GW level2. Earthquake characteristics4. Determine Cyclic Resistance Ratio (CRR)1. Based on SPT data (N-value)5. Calculate Factor of Safety: FoS = CRR/CSR
