loses its solid properties that are
converted to liquid properties.
Effects of Liquefaction:

When liquefaction occurs, the strength of the soil decreases, and, the ability of a
soil deposit to support foundations for buildings is reduced.
Liquefied soil also exerts higher pressure on retaining walls, which can cause them
to tilt or slide. This movement can cause settlement of the retained soil.
Increased water pressure can also trigger landslides and cause the collapse of
dams.
