Application of Lateral Spread Hazard Definition Using Liquefaction Susceptibility Index to the Design of Buried Pipelines

by Douglas G. Honegger, EOE Engineering, Inc, Costa Mesa, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Lifeline Earthquake Engineering

Abstract:

Recent liquefaction hazard studies have made use of relationships developed to provide direct estimates of liquefaction displacements interms of liquefaction susceptibility index (LSI). Utilization of LSI information for a proposed gas transmission pipeline route is presented. The discussion presented here focusses on the considerable reliance on engineering judgement still required to translate LSI values into rational design quantities.
