liquefaction

This makes them very vulnerable to a process called liquefaction.

There’s no mention of those possibilities in the feasibility study, but Wilkerson said that’s because it came out before liquefaction zone maps were better understood.

Thirteen buildings that are not retrofitted are also in liquefaction zones, areas where the ground can break during an earthquake.

The choice of proper catalysts prior to the liquefaction process can solve this problem because of accelerated ortho-to-para conversion.

Specific challenges arise depending on the location of a building, such as if it is in a liquefaction zone, in which the ground can no longer support the weight of structures.
