N2 - Sands and silty sands with the same liquefaction resistance can have significantly different hydraulic conductivity and coefficient of consolidation. Numerical simulations of cone penetration resistance taking into account the effects of silt content and consolidation characteristics show that the penetration resistances are significantly affected by consolidation characteristics for sands and sand-silt mixes with similar liquefaction resistances. The influence of permeability and consolidation characteristics on cone penetration resistances are presented. Relationships between liquefaction resistance, cone penetration resistance, and a normalized penetration rate are presented and compared with current field-based CPT-liquefaction screening methods.
