This study has been prepared for the evaluation of liquefaction resistance of soils in Padma (Jashaldia) Wate
Treatment Project (Phase-1) Project site. The subsoil conditions of the project site applied for the soil lique-
faction study are based on bore- hole locations extracted from the final engineering report of the soil invest-
igation to be finally issued.

amax vo
CSR = 0.65 x x rd
g 'vo
Where, amax = peak ground acceleration at the ground surface
g = accelaration of gravity
vo = total vertical overburden stress
= zus x d
'vo = Vertical effective stress
= zus x d + zs x (sat - w)
zus = thickness of individual layers above the water table.
zs = thickness of saturated soil deposits below the water table
sat = saturated unit weight of soil
w = unit weight of water = 9.81 kn/m3
