Liquefaction is one of the most serious geotechnical hazards that may cause irreparable and financial damages. Based on in-situ testing results, several methods have been developed to evaluate the liquefaction potential. Due to continuous and repeated records, the piezocone (CPTu) has gained wide acceptance among other in-situ tests in geotechnical practice. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for liquefaction potential evaluation based on CPTu results. The new approach is verified by ten CPTu soundings (case histories) derived from different sites. By analyzing the liquefied sites, an area on the soil classification charts was introduced in this paper, showing the soil types which are most susceptible to liquefaction. The results of liquefaction prediction by this proposed approach demonstrate good accuracy and consistency with other current methods.
