How to Estimate Liquefaction Resistance Factor and Liquefaction Potential Index

This tutorial explains how to calculate the liquefaction resistance factor (1:39), (example starts at 08:36), and liquefaction potential index (17:42) of sandy soil profile of 20 meters. The procedure was introduced by Iwasaki, Tokida, Tatsuoka in 1981 as a tool to estimate the liquation potential of soil. This procedure used the data from standard-penetration tests (watch this for more details about SPT    • Correcting SPT N values to Hammer Ene...   ) and earthquake maximum acceleration (these videos will be helpful    • Understanding Acceleration Response S...   ,    • Estimating Seismic Moment and Magnitu...  ).
