Simplified Standard Penetration Test Performance-Based Assessment of Liquefaction and Effects: Updated Liquefaction Parameter Mapping - Addendum Report

The purpose of this addendum report is to document the process used to develop updated standard penetration test (SPT)-compatible liquefaction parameter maps for the states of Alaska, Connecticut, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, South Carolina, and Utah. The seismic source model developed by the US Geological Survey (USGS) and developed in 2014 was used to develop updated liquefaction parameter maps for the states of Connecticut, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, South Carolina, and Utah. The most recent USGS seismic source models available for the state of Alaska were from 2008 for mapping the hazards of liquefaction triggering, post-liquefaction settlement, and Newmark seismic slope displacement. The USGS 2002 seismic source model was the most recent model available for mapping the hazard of lateral spread displacement for Alaska. All of the completed reference parameter maps have been added to a publicly-available and interactive database. Hard copies of the developed updated reference parameter maps are also included in the appendix of this addendum report.
