Evaluation of Peak Ground Acceleration Using CPT Data for Liquefaction Potential

The Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) campus was constructed on 28 hectare which mostly rested on a sand deposit. The ground water table was shallow. Theoretically, the site was susceptible to liquefaction during ground-shaking. During earthquake on May 27, 2006, a magnitude 6.3 shocked the...
