LIQUEFACTION DURING THE 1990 MANJIL, IRAN, EARTHQUAKE .2. CASE-HISTORY ANALYSES

Liquefaction and liquefaction-induced permanent ground deformations an d building settlements were widespread during the 1990 Manjil, Iran, e arthquake (M(s) = 7.7). In the first of these companion articles, geol ogic, seismologic, and geotechnical data of liquefaction case historie s were presented. This article presents results of the analysis of (1) the ground-motion data; (2) liquefaction strength corresponding to le vel ground conditions; (3) permanent lateral ground deformations; (4) residual shear strength of the liquefied sands; and (5) settlement of buildings on liquefied sands.
