LIQUEFACTION HAZARD EVALUATION OF INTERSTATE, FEDERAL, AND STATE HIGHWAY BRIDGE SITES IN UTAH - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (EXCERPTS)

Profiles showing depths and thicknesses of possibly liquefiable layers were made for each bridge site in Utah were regional investigations indicated potential for liquefiable sediments and where adequate geotechnical information was available to estimate liquefaction resistance. These profiles are presented as figures in the project report. A summary listing the bridge locations and the cumulative thickness of liquefiable sediment in the upper 15 m of the soil profile is given in a table for all of the Priority I sites (25 bridges at river or creek crossings). This CD-ROM version contains excerpts from the executive summary of the full report.
