dc.description.abstractThe empirical liquefaction triggering chart of Idriss and Boulanger (2008) is compared to direct measurements of the cyclic resistance of Christchurch silty sands via undisturbed and reconstituted lab specimens. Comparisons suggest that overall there is a reasonable agreement between the empirical triggering curve and the interpreted test data. However, the influence of fines on cyclic resistance appears to be over-predicted by the empirical method, particularly for non-plastic silty sands that are commonly encountered in flood over-bank deposits in Christchurch and nearby settlementsen
