Abstract
Soil site investigations such as boring logs, basic soil properties, spectral analysis of surface wave, and the examinations of geologic and geomorphologic were performed in Mae Lao area to investigate the susceptibility of liquefaction after the 6.2 Mw Chiang Rai Earthquake 2014. The study area was found to lay on a complex geological formation and geotechnical behavior with a condition of the high groundwater table. Being located on a high seismicity area (intensity V-VII Mercalli) governs the study area as a concern for high liquefaction hazards. Liquefaction susceptibility-based compositional criteria, soil resistance, and geologic criteria have been established, and consequently, the character of liquefaction potential is defined.
