Experimental Investigation on Liquefaction Mitigation using Pumice Aggregate and Geosynthetics
Shaking tables are used in earthquake geotechnical engineering for physical modeling and are essential to the fundamental knowledge and practical application of soil behavior. The shaking table test provides a realistic and obvious solution to geotechnical concerns such as liquefaction and post-seismic settlement problems that are discussed. Liquefaction is a major earthquake-related phenomenon that reduces the resistance of saturated soil. This paper aims to study the impact of geosynthetics along with pumice aggregate to mitigate the effect caused by liquefaction employing a shake table setup. In this research, the laminar shear box is used for testing to simulate the free field boundary condition during shaking which gives more accurate results. The effect is evaluated by monitoring soil acceleration, pore water pressure, and settlement caused by the shaking process. Results of a series of shaking table tests with an initial relative density of 30% of the effectiveness of proposed mitigation against settlement problems are evaluated. The results indicate that the geotextile inclusion and pumice inclusion increases liquefaction resistance.
