     this paper revisits the seminal work of seed and booker (1977) on the design of infinitely permeable drains for liquefaction mitigation. it is shown that their basic mathematical assumption for the rate of earthquake-induced excess pore pressure generation overlooks sand fabric evolution effects during cyclic loading and eventually leads to underestimation of the drain effectiveness. this is because such effects cause peak excess pore pressures to be attained at the early stages of partially drained shaking, followed by a gradual attenuation even if shaking continues undiminished, a response feature not predicted by the original formulation. in addition, special emphasis is given to the analytical relation describing the excess pore pressure build-up until liquefaction in undrained tests. this relation was considered unique in the original work, for reasons of simplicity, thus neglecting sand fabric evolution effects that may differentiate it for various sands, densities and loading conditions. hence, a revised analytical formulation is proposed, which takes into account both above effects of sand fabric evolution. the paper provides a quantitative assessment of their influence on drain effectiveness and establishes a new set of charts for drain design. experimental measurements from shaking table tests, as well as robust numerical simulations are shown, which underline the necessity for the revised solution and design charts.
