Liquefaction and Lateral Spreading

Earthquake induced ground liquefaction can result in significant deformations at the surface - in some cases enough to topple large buildings.

Lateral spreading resulting from liquefaction can also cause catastrophic damage affecting large areas.

For specialists in liquefaction and lateral spreading see LDE for:

• Site liquefaction potential
• Identification of layers prone to liquefaction
• Quantification of the magnitude of surface settlement
• Quantification of differential settlement potential
• Structural deformation potential
• Magnitudes of lateral spreading potential across the site
• Surface deformation potential
• Design advice to minimise the risk of building deformation associated with lateral spreading
• Lateral spreading remediation
