Ground Failures Under Seismic Conditions Proceedings of the Sessions Sponsored by the Geotechnical
Experts from Japan, Canada, and the United States examine the dynamic properties, cyclic behavior, and liquefaction of silty and gravelly soils.
Fifteen papers highlight case histories and current laboratory and field testing methods used to evaluate ground failure of gravels and silts under seismic conditions.
Among other topics, papers review the cyclic behavior of partially saturated collapsible soils subjected to water permeation; earthquake-induced settlements in silty sands for New England seismicity; dynamic properties of gravels sampled by ground freezing; and Becker test results from gravel liquefaction sites.
