Earthquake can be considered to have two different characters, cyclic loading and random pulsative loading. As structures are apt to oscillate at their natural frequencies, the random pulsative loading is considered the important part of earthquake.In the present study the dynamic response characters of soft saturated clays under an impact load have been investigated by subjecting the material to test under simply simulated earthquake in the triaxial cell. Three types of test adopted are those of the longitudinal impact vibration test, the torsional impact vibration test and the longitudinal forced vibration test.
