Abstract
A brief review of soil liquefaction and maximum seismic intensities that occurred in Peru since the XVI th century is presented. Two cases of recent earthquakes that induced soil liquefaction will be described: the May 31, 1970 Chimbote event on the peruvian coast and the May 29, 1990 and April 4, 1991 earthquakes in the northern peruvian jungle.
