Key Parameters Observed in the Field
Structure‐to‐StructureInteraction
(1) Liquefaction-induced settlements of buildings with shallow foundations were affected by various factors, relative effects of which have not been clearly identified.
(2) A simplified procedure should be pursued for better understanding of the mechanism that could explain building damage in most of the complied case histories.

Summary from Centrifuge Experiment
(1) The relative settlement and tilt angle of a building decreased as the crust thickness (HNL) and the density of liquefied soil (DrL) increased or the thickness of the liquefied soil (HL) and building contact pressure (qB) decreased. (2) The effects of soil liquefaction on building damage were well accounted for by the safety factors against vertical force and static and dynamic overturning moments of the building together with the liquefaction severity of the underlying liquefiable deposit, represented by the integration of liquefaction-induced volumetric strain with depth.
3. KEY CHALLENGES AND PATHSFORWARD
(1) Compilation/revisit of well documented case histories of liquefaction‐induced ground and building settlements during resent earthquakes.(2) Centrifuge experiments to identify relative effects of key parameters on building settlements.(3) Development of a simplified procedure that can explain liquefaction-induced building damage in most of the complied case histories and centrifuge experiments.
3. KEY CHALLENGES AND PATHSFORWARD (CONT.)
(4) Refinement of numerical and design procedures to estimate ground and building settlements, which should be substantiated by well‐documented case histories and centrifuge experiments.(5) Development of cost effective mitigation techniques taking into account the key parameters controlling settlement and tilting of buildings.
