Abstract:In the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11, 2011, liquefaction was not observed in areas where sand compaction piles (SCP) had been used for soil improvement, confirming the effectiveness of the compaction method. Recently, energy-based liquefaction determination methods have been developed for liquefaction determination in the design of SCP methods. In this study, hollow torsional shear tests were conducted under isotropic and anisotropic stress conditions with different fine-grain content and density. Th… Show more
