Screening Guide for Rapid Assessment of Liquefaction Hazard at Highway Bridge Sites
The overall objective of this task was to provide procedures and guidance for highway engineers to conduct preliminary assessments of the vulnerability of existing highway structures to damage as a consequence of liquefaction-induced ground failure. This report provides a screening guide for performing a systematic evaluation of liquefaction hazard at bridge sites and a guide for prioritizing sites for further investigation or mitigation. The guide is intended for use by highway engineers with expertise and experience in geotechnical engineering practice, but not necessarily specialized knowledge in seismic hazard evaluation. It presents a systematic application of standard criteria for assessing liquefaction, ground displacement potential, and vulnerability of bridges to damage. The screening process proceeds from least complex, least time-consuming, and least data-intensive evaluation to the more complex, time-consuming, and rigorous analyses.
