PREFACE
Outstanding advances have been achieved on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering and
Microzonation in the last decade mostly due to the increase in the recorded instrumental
in-situ data and large number of case studies conducted in analyzing the observed
effects during the recent major earthquakes.
During the 15th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical
Engineering held in Istanbul in August 2001, the mittee of Earthquake
Geotechnical Engineering, (TC4) of the International Society of Soil Mechanics and
Geotechnical anised a regional seminar on Geotechnical Earthquake
Engineering and Microzonation where an effort has been made to present the recent
