| Zusammenfassung |
| Earthquakes registering magnitudes Md = 4.5 and 4.7 struck the city of Konya,
Central Anatolia, on 10–11 September 2009, causing very slight damages. The
earthquake epicenters were located at the east of Sille District along the
Konya Fault Zone, a dip-slip fault. The nature and seismicity of the fault
zone indicates that it is capable of producing earthquakes of moderate
magnitudes. This paper summarizes the geologic data along the fault zone and
documents groundwater conditions and analyzes borehole and geotechnical data
of the Konya city. The residential area of the city covers an area of
approximately 1150 square kilometers and consists almost entirely of
flat land except for a small part of rugged land in the southwestern corner.
Groundwater and geotechnical data were collected and analyzed to evaluate
the liquefaction potential of deposits under the Konya city. This
preliminary investigation indicates that areas for liquefaction are
generally limited to the eastern and east central parts of the city. |
