Intent 1:

To limit the probability that liquefaction and its consequences (e.g. ground displacement, loss of soil strength and stiffness) will not be taken into account in the design of a structure and its foundations, which could lead to the excessive displacement of the building, which could lead to:

• damage to the building, or
• damage to the building, which could impede the intended use and occupancy of the building.
