Computational Investigation of Soil Liquefaction Susceptibility based on Standard Penetration Test Value of Miri District (Sarawak, Malaysia)

Miri is a district of Sarawak state of Malaysia and is a coastal area located at the boundary of Brunei. This paper deciphers the analysis of liquefaction susceptibility of the Miri district. Standard penetration test with N values (SPT-N) empirical criteria has been used for evaluating the liquef...
