N2  - The purpose of this book is to present the practical aspects of geotechnical earthquake engineering. Because of the assumptions and uncertainties associated with geotechnical engineering, it is often described as an "art" rather than exact science. Geotechnical earthquake engineering is even more challenging because of the inherent unknowns associated with earthquakes. Because of these uncertainties in earthquake engineering, simple analyses are prominent in this book, with complex and theoretical evaluations kept to an essential minimum
