A comprehensive testing database composed of modeling-quality multi-directional cyclic simple shear testing on medium to high relative density, fully-saturated samples of Monterey 0/30 sand has recently been developed. This testing program incorporated a variety of multi-directional stress paths, including a large number of stress paths never before examined. Results from these tests have proven useful for enhancing current understanding of liquefaction behavior by allowing for a more complete theory to emerge. This new 3-dimensional theory greatly expands current understanding of liquefaction behavior and elucidates some areas in which current theory—which has been based principally on uni-directional laboratory testing—can be misleading or unconservative. Of particular interest are the topics of pore pressure generation and softening, the relationship between pore pressure and strain capacity, and the dilational lock-up in medium density sands that acts to limit large free-flow type deformations. Insight has also been gained on the complex effects caused by an initial static shear stress such as would be imposed by sloping ground conditions or the presence of a structure.
