SEISMIC BEARING CAPACITY OF PILES IN LIQUEFIABLE SOILS

摘要

The authors would like to thank the discusser for his comments and for providing additional data which are supportive of the conclusions drawn by the authors.rnFor a limiting vertical movement ratio of 10%, the discusser's proposed relationship between excess pore pressure ratio and limiting SSF (Eq. (13)) is conservative compared to that presented by the authors (Eq. (11)), in that a greater SSF should be selected in design to withstand a given excess pore pressure ratio. It should be noted that Eq.
