Table 2 Mineral composition and physical property of liquefied soil and Malan loess.
From: Study on sand liquefaction induced by Songyuan earthquake with a magnitude of M5.7 in China
Soil sample | Mineral composition (%) | Physical property | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
SiO2 | Al2O3 | Fe2O3 | CaO | Plasticity index | Clay content (< 0.075 mm)(%) | |
Liquefied soil | 61.3 | 18.9 | 10.5 | 1.8 | 13 | 20.5 |
Malan loess (adapted from Liu.) | > 60 | 3 ~ 6 | 7.5 ~ 10.5 | 7.6 ~ 15.7 | 7.0 ~ 30.4 | |
