22 FEBRUARY 2011 CHRISTCHURCH EARTHQUAKE AND IMPLICATIONS FOR THE DESIGN OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES (2012)
At 12:51pm local time on 22 February 2011, a Mw 6.2 aftershock of the
September 4, 2010, Darfield Earthquake shook the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. The aftershock occurred on an unmapped fault less than 8 km from the city center resulting in the collapse of two reinforced concrete office buildings and one concrete parking garage, and severe damage to numerous others. This paper summarizes the observed damage to concrete buildings in Central Business District (CBD), with a specific focus on identifying future research to support possible changes to international seismic design codes to address the Christchurch observations.
