ALVA-HURTADO, Jorge  e  ORTIZ-SALAS, Carmen. Actualización de la ocurrencia del fenómeno de licuación de suelos en el Perú. Tecnia [online]. 2020, vol.30, n.2, pp.6-17. ISSN 0375-7765.  http://dx.doi.org/10.21754/tecnia.v30i2.756.

This paper presents the available information on the soil liquefaction phenomenon induced by seismic action in Peru and its representation on a soil liquefaction hazard map. Such map is drawn at a scale of 1: 5,000,000 and distinguishes between real and probable liquefaction hazards, according to the interpretation of the information available in the literature. All the documentation that provides evidence of the liquefaction phenomenon, such as the formation of small mud and sand boils, the violent expulsion of water from the ground, the presence of intense cracking and the differential settlements triggered by seismic action, has been detailed in this article.

Palavras-chave : Soil liquefaction; Earthquakes; Water table.
