Port Westward Stone Column Installation Cornforth Consultants routinely evaluates the effects of seismic loading to structures founded on sensitive soil. We have reviewed seismic records for vital infrastructure such as earth and concrete arch and gravity dams, earth levees, hospitals, power plants, and bridges. An innovative modified Newmark analysis to calculate coseismic displacement of landslides was developed and published by our staff.
Areas of interest include regional seismicity, design earthquakes, evaluation of active faults, liquefaction analysis, dynamic soil-structure interaction, slope stability and ground response.
Services related to earthquake engineering are found in our Services section. Representative projects are listed below with links to detailed write-ups.
