RISFrom U.S. Engineer to World Engineer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To survive, all nations are engaged in a global competition to advance their national welfare in a global economy. Indicators and factors conducive to the diminishing technological leadership of the United States in this ...
Magnitude Scaling Factors for Soil Liquefaction Evaluations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Energy concepts are applied to the conditions that are likely to have existed at distant liquefaction sites in past earthquakes. From this, magnitude scaling factors are derived that reflect field cyclic strength conditions. ...
Evaluation of Liquefaction Potential Using Field Performance Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The evolution of a simplified procedure for evaluating the liquefaction potential of sand deposits using data obtained from standard penetration tests is reviewed. Field data for sites which are known to have liquefied or ...

Liquefaction Resistance of Soils: Summary Report from the 1996 NCEER and 1998 NCEER/NSF Workshops on Evaluation of Liquefaction Resistance of Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Following disastrous earthquakes in Alaska and in Niigata, Japan in 1964, Professors H. B. Seed and I. M. Idriss developed and published a methodology termed the “simplified procedure” for evaluating liquefaction resistance ...
