Soil liquefaction vulnerability assessment of Sylhet city based on SPT value
Abstract: Bangladesh is an earthquake-prone country due to its geographic location. Sylhet, a divisional city, is situated in Zone IV, the most seismically active area in the country, according to the Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC). A major earthquake can cause devastating effects in the subsurface, such as liquefaction, landslides resulting from a reduction of soil shear resistance. In this study, liquefaction potentiality of soil in Ward No. 9 of Sylhet …
