520    Liquefaction mitigation techniques are often used in the 
       field to alleviate liquefaction hazard to the built 
       environment. However, the current practice of designing 
       mitigation techniques ignores the presence of buildings, 
       and depends solely on satisfying the settlement criteria, 
       and constructability. This design practice is due to lack 
       of understanding of the influence of different mitigation 
       strategies on the performance of soil-foundation-structure
       systems 
520    In this dissertation, centrifuge experiments were designed
       and conducted to investigate soil-mitigation-foundation-
       structure systems, considering two potentially inelastic 
       structures (3- and 9-story) placed on a layered 
       liquefiable deposit (with and without a silt cap), with 
       three different mitigation strategies: 1) enhanced 
       drainage through prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs); 2) 
       shear reinforcement using in-ground structural walls 
       (SWs); and 3) enhanced drainage and damping, and shear 
       reinforcement provided by an in-ground gravel-rubber panel
       wall system 
520    The first set of test results show that PVDs and SWs 
       reduced total foundation settlement compared to the 
       unmitigated case. However, they amplified accelerations on
       the foundations, which could increase flexural 
       deformations and P-Delta effects, with potentially adverse
       effects on foundation tilt (particularly for the taller, 
       heavier, more deeply embedded, and weaker 9-story 
       structure). The presence of soil interlayering (due to a 
       silt cap) affected the overall response of unmitigated and
       PVD-mitigated structures, particularly impacting 
       foundation tilt 
520    Based on the insights gained from the tests with 
       traditional mitigation techniques, we designed and tested 
       a new mitigation strategy for shallow-founded structures: 
       an in-ground gravel-rubber panel wall (GR) system. This 
       system aims to reduce building settlements and tilts, 
       while isolating the structure from the larger acceleration
       demands expected in mitigated ground. Test results showed 
       that the GRs could be beneficial, roughly satisfying 
       design objectives for the 3-story structure, but amplified
       tilt on the 9-story structure. Therefore, additional 
       design considerations and shear reinforcement are required
       in the panel walls to improve total system response 
520    The results presented in this dissertation point to the 
       importance of considering the structure's dynamic and 
       geometric properties, force-deformation behavior, soil 
       interlayering, and the possible increase in shaking 
       intensity level due to different mitigation strategies, 
       when designing traditional or innovative techniques to 
       mitigate consequences of liquefaction
