This study aims to investigate the dynamic properties of North Coast calcareous sands located at Dabaa and Agami districts . The key parameters representing the shear stress - strain behavior of soils are the small strain shear modulus (Gmax) shear modulus degradation factor (G/Gmax) and torsional damping ratio (Ds) These are also important parameters in the design of foundations where only small deformation takes place
