sand deposit has been identified beneath a site located adjacent to a river. The sand deposit is 15 feet thick and the top of the layer is 12 feet below the ground surface and overlain by a very stiff clay and is underlain by bedrock. The water level has been measured to be at a depth of 10 feet. The standard penetration resistance of the layer has been determined to be 12 blows per foot and a standard sampler was used; a drill rig with a safety hammer with an efficiency of 60% was used. The length of the drill rod is 10 meters and the borehole diameter is 5 inches (127 mm). The design earthquake has been designated as a moment magnitude 6-3/4 event on a nearby fault and the maximum ground acceleration is expected to be 0.40 g. The wet unit weight of the clay soils is 150 pounds per cubic foot and the wet unit weight of the sand soils is 180 pounds per cubic foot. The sands have 35% fines content according to a grain size analysis. Compute the factor of safety against liquefaction of…
