The particle composition, physical and mechanical properties of tailings silt in Zhuziqing tailings dam were tested by means of field survey and lab test. And the liquefaction potential of tailings silt in Zhuziqing tailings dam were investigated based on field-performance data using standard penetration test (SPT) and wave velocity test (WVT) methods. Results show that the liquefaction potential of tailings silt in Zhuziqing tailings dam can be evaluated by means of SPT and WVT. Results also show that there is almost non liquefaction at the places in Zhuziqing tailings dam where are under the seventh sub-dam, and there is serious liquefaction in the new sub-dam and deposited beach, which locate at the places above the eleventh sub-dam.

Gempa bumi yang terjadi di daerah Bantul, Yogyakarta pada 27 Mei 2006 dengan magnitudo gempa bumi sebesar 6.3 SR dapat menyebabkan terjadinya bahaya likuifaksi yang dapat merusak bangunan khususnya di wilayah Bantul Yogyakarta. Investigasi geoteknik yang telah dilakukan di Bantul, Yogyakarta dapat memberikan gambaran lapisan tanah yang berpotensi terjadinya likuifaksi. Analisis potensi likuifaksi dilakukan berdasarkan data SPT (Standard Penetration Test) dan CPT (Cone Penetration Test) dengan percepatan maksimum tanah menurut Gutenberg Richter di daerah penelitian rata-rata bernilai sebesar 2.93 m/s2 dan menurut Donovan sebesar 2.88 m/s2. Hasil analisis penelitian menunjukan bahwa lapisan tanah yang berpotensi likuifaksi didominasi oleh jenis tanah pasir lanauan da lanau pasiran yang berada pada kedalaman 0.2 – 3 m, 0.4 m, 2.4 m, 3.6 m, 7.6 – 7.8 m dan 8.2 m. Pengaruh percepatan maksimum tanah menurut Gutenberg Richter lebih besar terhadap terjadinya likuifaksi daripada menurut Donovan. Perbandingan hasil analisis potensi likuifaksi antara data SPT (Standard Penetration Test ) dan CPT (Cone Penetration Test) pada daerah penelitian menunjukan adanya kesamaan potensi likuifaksi pada lapisan tanah dengan kedalaman yang sama diantaranya pada kedalaman 0.2 m-4 m, dengan nilai Cyclic Strees Ratio (CSR) rata-rata sebesar 0.2, sedangkan berdasarkan nilai Cyclic Resistance Ratio (CRR) terdapat perbedaan nlai. Analisis berdasarkan data CPT lebih baik daripada data SPT karena data CPT lebih rapat daripada data SPT.The earthquake that occurred in Bantul, Yogyakarta on May 27, 2006 with the magnitudo of the earthquake of 6.3 SR can caused liquefaction hazard which could damage to teh building in the municipals of Bantul, Yogyakarta. Geotechnical investigation was carried in Bantul Yogyakarta, can give information about liquefaction hazard in soil layer. The liquefaction potential lanalysis was conducted using SPT and CPT methods, with Gutenberg-Richter’s maximum ground acceleration is 2.93 m/s2  and Donovan’s maximum ground acceleration is 2.88 m/s2. Result of liquefaction analysis indicate that the soil layer domination of silty sand dan sandy silt at the depth of 0.2 – 3 m, 3.6 m, 4 m 7.6 – 7.8 m and 8.2 m. Gutenberg-Richter’s maximum ground acceleration having influential for liquefaction potential better than Donovan’s maximum ground acceleration. Ratio result of liquefaction was conducted using SPT same as soil layer with CPT in resech location at the depth 0.2 m-4 m, with value Cyclic Strees Ratio (CSR) is 0.2. Even value Cyclic Resistances Ratio (CSR) have different value. The liquefaction potential lanalysis was conducted using CPT method better than SPT methods.

Due to its continuous data recording capability, excellent repeatability and accuracy, relatively low cost and simplicity of operation, the cone penetration test (CPT) offers enhanced liquefaction assessment over its predecessor the standard penetration test (SPT). However, soil ageing, which influences the cyclic resistance ratio (CRR), is difficult, if not impossible, to be detected by the CPT due to disturbance during the test. This situation may lead to excessively conservative estimation of CRR values which result in conservative assessment of liquefaction potential. This paper presents and discusses liquefaction assessment using the CPT and methods for accounting for soil ageing. A field study, conducted at Gillman, South Australia, is presented and the study site is assessed for liquefaction potential. This paper also explores the influence of soil ageing on the subsequent liquefaction assessment.

AbstractAn assessment of liquefaction potential for the Kathmandu Valley considering seasonal variability of the groundwater table has been conducted. To gain deeper understanding seven historical liquefaction records located adjacent to borehole datapoints (published in SAFER/GEO-591) were used to compare two methods for the estimation of liquefaction potential. Standard Penetration Test (SPT) blowcount data from 75 boreholes inform the new liquefaction potential maps. Various scenarios were modelled, i.e., seasonal variation of the groundwater table and peak ground acceleration. Ordinary kriging, implemented in ArcGIS, was used to prepare maps at urban scale. Liquefaction potential calculations using the methodology from (Sonmez, Environ Geol 44:862–871, 2003) provided a good match to the historical liquefaction records in the region. Seasonal variation of the groundwater table is shown to have a significant effect on the spatial distribution of calculated liquefaction potential across the valley. The less than anticipated liquefaction manifestations due to the Gorkha earthquake are possibly due to the seasonal water table level.
