Abstract

The value of the Earth crust rocks ultimate strain together with other physical-and-mechanical characteristics plays an important role in problems on setting maximal values of displacements, velocities and accelerations of grounds in the course of quakes, in determining of the value of potential strain energy accumulated in the medium when a process of a large quake maturation runs, in prognostication of a quake by “ultimate strain of rocks” forerunner as well as other problems, are related to the soil bearing resistance and behaviour. The paper represents a developed method for determining the magnitude of ultimate strain of soils thickness of the Earth crust in natural conditions by the relative slips on the earth surface after a large earthquake. Are obtained the empirical dependences of the value of ultimate strain from magnitude of earthquake, relative slips, the rupture length, and seismic moment by analysing values calculated by the proposed method for the 44 strong earthquakes with a magnitude of 5.6-8.5. A comparative analysis of the ultimate strain values is given which is obtained by other authors by the method of geodesic triangulation.
