Liquefaction hazard mapping of the south-central coastal areas of Bangladesh
Liquefaction can cause significant damage to the built environment; therefore, assessing the liquefaction hazard in a seismically active region is essential to minimize the risk. This study attempted to evaluate the liquefaction potential of the south-central coastal areas of Bangladesh by calculating the liquefaction potential index (LPI) considering a scenario earthquake of Mw = 7.5 having a peak ground acceleration of 0.15g. For calculating LPI, both standard penetration test blow count (SPT-N) and shear wave velocity (Vs) data have been used in this study. The results show that the study area's LPI values vary from 0 to 37. A liquefaction hazard map is prepared for the area using the calculated LPI values from Vs data shows about 8% of the study area is very highly susceptible to liquefaction hazard, whereas 62% of the area falls under high hazard-prone area while about 28% and 2% area of the study have respectively low (0
