Skopje Sand-Natural Alluvial Sand
摘要
The city of Skopje has suffered an earthquake in 1963 with a magnitude 6.3. Based on the damages to the building environment, the earthquake intensity was classified as zone IX, due to the catastrophic failure observed in the building stock. Yet, almost not a single damage associated to the geotechnical conditions of the ground has been reported due to the lack of previous data on the cyclic behavior of the soil.
