Conducting experiment on embankment model by shaking table could be one of the
accurate methods to evaluating behavior of embankment when it is under seismic
loading. Dynamic force is responsible for nonlinear stress in the system. When the
model is under dynamic loading, suitable arrangement of dense zone in the subsoil is
the main factor at the play in embankment stability. In this paper for mitigate seismic
force was applied up on the embankment model, the results of three experiments have
been considered to assessment function of dense zone installed in different location of
the subsoil. The stress in the system has been measured and photographs were taken
for presenting reaction of the embankment model. At final the results of three
experiments indicated possibility of understanding embankment behavior when it is
under seismic force.
