Outstanding advances have been achieved on Earthquake Geotechnical
Engineering and Microzonation in the last decade mostly due to the
increase in the recorded instrumental in-situ data and large number
of case studies conducted in analyzing the observed effects during
the recent major earthquakes. During the 15th International
Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering held in
Istanbul in August 2001, the Technical Committee of Earthquake
Geotechnical Engineering, (TC4) of the International Society of
Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering organised a regional
seminar on Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and Microzonation
where an effort has been made to present the recent advances in the
field by eminent scientists and researchers. The book idea was
first suggested by the participants of this seminar. The purpose of
this book as well as of the seminar was to present the broad
spectrum of earthquake geotechnical engineering and seismic
microzonation including strong ground motion, site
characterisation, site effects, liquefaction, seismic
microzonation, solid waste landfills and foundation engineering.
The subject matter requires multidisciplinary input from different
fields of engineering seismology, soil dynamics, geotechnical and
structural engineering. The chapters in this book are prepared by
some of the distinguished lecturers who took part in the seminar
supplemented with contributions of few distinguished experts in the
field of earthquake geotechnical engineering. The editor would like
to express his gratitude to all authors for their interest and
efforts in preparing their manuscripts. Without their enthusiasm
and support, it would not have been possible to complete this book.
