Abstract
Within the limited scope of the author’s experiences on countermeasures against liquefaction, lattice walls by in-situ cement-mixing, cut-off sheet pile walls and dewatering are picked up. Technical issues on the effectiveness of these countermeasures and their evaluation procedures are discussed based on results from relevant 1-g and centrifuge model tests, numerical analyses and triaxial tests.
