INTRODUCTION
The dynamic analysis of La Costa Verde Cliffs, located between
San Miguel and Miraflores districts of Lima city, was performed,
using two dimensional model and FEM techniques.

The analysis was performed using the GeoSlopes Quake/W

software, and records of Lima October 1974 and Kobe 1995
Earthquakes, were used as input signals.

GEOTECHNICAL CHARACTERIZATION

The geotechnical characterization of La Costa Verde Cliffs was

defined using boreholes of compiled geotechnical studies.
According to this information, the soil profile is composed by
poorly graded gravel deposits with thin sandy and silty soils
layers. In some places landfill deposits are also observed.

RESULTS OF IN SITU DIRECT SHEAR TESTS (CAARI, 2001)

SOIL DYNAMIC PARAMETERS

Only few compiled geotechnical studies included P-S well logging

down hole tests, therefore in order to estimate the dynamic
parameters of the soils that conform the cliff soil profile, empirical
equations that correlate the direct plate load test results with the
elastic and shear modulus were used.

CONCLUDING REMARKS

The dynamic response analysis of La Costa Verde Cliffs was

performed at five representative cross sections. From them, Section
I shows the larger seismic response.

Results show that for Section I, located at San Miguel district, the
larger seismic amplification occur in the first 7.0 meters of the upper
layer, conformed by fine soils and landfills. Considering the
occurrence of an earthquake similar to the 1995 Kobe earthquake,
the cliffs could present permanent deformation up to 1.55 m.

Absolute displacement of 6.0 a 11.0 cm are obtained in the cliffs when the
1974 Lima earthquake scaled to a PGA of 0.40g is used as input signal.

Further investigation is required to evaluate the dynamic parameters of

gravely soils, which is the predominant material of the cliffs.
