14.48282 -90.56693 The sites are located on deltaic deposit near the mouth of a small river, Rio Villalobos at the settlement of La Playa on the north-east shore of Lake Amatitlan. The general area behind the shoreline is quite flat with the ground sloping gently up about 2 degs away from the lake. Two test pits were dug to a depth of ~ 5' on the level ground 40' from the beach. These showed the upper 4' of soil to be pumice sand underlain by a thin layer of dense fibrous peats and organic silt. Two field density test in the pumice sand showed that it had wet and dry densities ranging from 55.5-61.5 and 35.5-39.4 pcf respectively. Light-weight pumice sand at all boring locations was located above water table and was not itself the layer of liquefaction. However, north terminus of the fault is only 40 kms away from the lake.

Remarks: Site is located on reclaimed land that was developed using hydraulic fill procedures in the mid-1970s. Locations of discharge pipes are well known (see Fig 6 of Stewart et al. 2016). Relatively coarse sediments are expected near discharge locations, whereas relatively fine-grained sediments are expected in intermediate areas.

Remarks: The stratigraphy was divided into four informal units (Holzer et al 1999). From top down they are: unit A is about 1-m thick and consists of road material, artificial fill, and agricultural soil. Unit B consists of late-Holocene sheet flood and debris flow deposits. The clast lithology changes from sedimentary north of sounding 13 to mixed sedimentary, crystalline, and metamorphic south of sounding 13.5. No part of units A or B is below the water table. Unit C consists of late Pleistocene to middle Holocene fluvial deposits. Unit D consists of dense and firm sand, silt, and clay fluvial deposits of Pleistocene age. Based on lithology, cementation, and pedogenic soil development unit D may be part of the Saugus Formation. The contact between the Pleistocene and Holocene deposits is marked by a significant increase in tip resistance and blow count. Bennett et al.

34.22517 -118.55161 The site is underlain by two alluvial deposits which were divided into geotechnical units. The first geotechnical unit consists of two parts; unit A is a compacted residential fill, and unit B, Holocene alluvium composed of soft to very soft lean clay to sandy lean clay. The clay deposits are inferred to be of overbank and sheetflood origin. (Bennett 1989). The San Fernando Valley is a structural valley in southern California, which is filled with up to 4500 m of Tertiary sedimentary rock and alluvial sediment. Holocene age alluvial gravels, sands, and finer sediment with an aggregate thickness ranging from ~8-12 m immediately underlie the gently sloping valley floor.The alluvium was deposited by sediment-laden floodwaters that flowed out of the surrounding mountain canyons.

Remarks: "The site is underlain by Holocene and Pleistocene alluvial deposits composed of lean clay and silty sand. Unit A (0-2 m) consists of road base material, fill and silty sand to sandy lean clay. Unit B (2-6 m) consists of soft lean clay inferred to be flood basin deposits similar to the B unit at Malden street. Unit C (6-15 m) is texturally similar to unit B although Unit C is much firmer. Also, Unit C contains two subunits of silty sand, C, (6-8 m) and C2 (10-11.5 m). Subunit C, extends from sounding 8 northward to sounding 14, in general coarsening towards the north. Subunit C2 is thickest underneath soundings 5 and 11 (separation only about 3.5 m) and disappears northward at sounding 2 and southward at sounding 8. Unit D was only sampled in one boring (5a) and is inferred to be Pleistocene in age based on the increased penetration resistance shown in the CPT and SPT." (Bennett et al 1998)

Remarks: Kishida (1966), Cetin et al. (2018). Location approximated using map of testing locations from Kishida (1966). "The [Shinano] river has built up a considerable thickness of alluvial sand deposits, which along the coast have been overlain by deposits of dune sand... The sand extents to a depth of ~100' and alluvial deposits to 200-300'. In the vicinity of the river the ground is relatively flat" (Cetin et al. 2018).

Remarks: Ohsaki 1970; Cetin et al. 2018. Site of a paper-manufacturing plant. "A part of the ground consisted of loose sand and the other part was of dense sand, the latter suffering little damage. The part of loose sand had been compacted locally by means of vibroflotation, which demonstrated its effectiveness for preventing liquefaction" (Ohsaki 1970). "The site is a flat, sandy beach fronting on the Pacific Ocean. The sites consist of sands almost entirely down to a depth of more than 20 m from the ground surface containing large quantity of iron sand. However, the iron sand had been excavated and backfilled with waste sand except at P2 & 5" (Cetin et al. 2018). "...excavation and backfilling had been made almost all over the site, as shown in Fig. 4, except in a wood at the central part of the site and along a few paths within the site. There were several swampy places along the west border of the site" (Ohsaki 1970). Location approximated from maps given in Ohsaki (1970).

Remarks: Yasuda et al. (1996), Cetin et al. (2018).  The site is located on Port Island (reclaimed land, construction began in 1966, with first stage completed in 1980 and second stage began in 1986), with ground improvement by the rod (vibro) compaction method applied in the immediate area of this site.  Location approximated from Figure 4 of Yasuda et al. (1996), assuming a location on the map where rod compaction method was used and where no liquefaction was observed (see Figure 13).

(1998) and aligns with one of the locations in Figure 4 of Yasuda et al. (1996) where rod compaction method was used.
