4) Granular soil with earthquake-induced pore water pressure
Factor of safety against liquefaction (FS≤1)
The soil is expected to liquefied during the design earthquake with no shear strength.
FS>2: The pore water pressure generated by the earthquake is usually small enough, and
earthquake can be assumed to have no influence on soil strength.
