Contents: The earthquake loading of a shallow foundation resting on top of a cohesionless layer creates cyclic variations in the shear force and overturning moment acting on the supporting soil. These loads induce a tendency for volume change which, in turn, depending on the drainage conditions and material permeability, may cause in addition to a cyclic pore pressure variation a progressive pore pressure buildup. The paper develops an efficient and elegant way, based on a multiple time scale analysis, of solving this fully coupled problem. The theoretical solution is implemented in a finite element code and is applied to predict the pore pressure development and dissipation under a bridge pier foundation for which it was essential to limit the pore pressure increase.
