Evaluating Liquefaction Triggering Potential Using Seismic Input Parameters That Are Consistent with ASCE 7-16
ASCE 7-16 details how the peak ground acceleration (PGA) should be determined for evaluating liquefaction triggering, with this PGA reflecting the influence of a range of earthquake magnitudes on a site’s seismic hazard. Similarly, the Finn and Wightman magnitude-weighting scheme can be used to account for the full range of magnitudes influencing the seismic hazard at a site, where the weights are derived from a site’s seismic hazard deaggregation data. However, the deaggregation data for the seismic hazard maps for the Central/Eastern U.S. are only available for rock motions and not motions at the surface of the soil profile. The authors explore this issue by comparing the weighted average magnitude scaling factors (MSF) and depth-stress weighting factor (rd) values for multiple sites in the Western U.S. developed using deaggregation data for rock motions and for motions at the surface of the soil profiles. Based on these comparisons, the authors found that using the PGA deaggregation data for rock conditions yield similar weighted averages for MSF and rd as those computed using deaggregation data for the PGA at the surface of the soil profile.
