Full-scale experiment using controlled blasting was conducted in the Ishikari Bay New Port (Ishikariwan-shinko) in Hokkaido Island, Japan, to assess the performance of airport facilities subjected to the liquefaction. This paper mainly describes effect of liquefaction remediation and behavior of runway pavement during and after liquefaction by optical fiber monitoring. As a result of Full-scale experiment, a lot of valuable knowledge was obtained. Especially three types of tried liquefaction remediation with cost reduction deign specification are effective. Additionally optical fiber sensor shows high possibility for utilization as a runway pavement performance monitor because its deformation induced by liquefaction could be measured.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
