We also feel the ground vibrate when there is a large man-made explosion, perhaps from a nearby quarry. Natural events like volcanic eruptions or landslides can also shake the ground tremendously. For many people who have experienced a very strong earthquake, nothing is perhaps more daunting than being on a tall building that sways as if it is going to be the end of the world. Ground shaking or vibration is what we feel when energy built up by the application of stress to the lithosphere is released by faulting during an earthquake. Can something be done to prevent the shaking of the ground during an earthquake? What then do we need to know and what actions can one take so that one does not experience damage to property and needless threat to lives during intense earthquake vibrations? How Earthquake Vibrations are Generated? Most natural earthquakes are caused by sudden slippage along a fault zone. Slippage along a fault is hindered because there are irregularities on the fault plane. If it were smooth, blocks on opposite sides of a fault will just slide past each other continuously. The elastic rebound theory suggests that elastic strain energy builds up in the deforming rocks on either side of the fault (Figure 4.1- 1) until it overcomes the resistance posed fanthquake Hoss ER Section Objectives: fl, Describe how seismic waves are generated. Differentiate how each type of seismic waves shakes the ground during an earthquake. Analyze the effects of vibration on the ground and man-made structures. List ways to minimize or avoid the damage that ground shaking may cause. by any irregularity on the fault plane. When Figure 4.1-1, Reid’s Elastic Rebound the slippage does occur, energy is released. The elastic energy released is transported by seismic waves that travel throughout the earth. We feel these seismic waves (Figure 4.1- 2) as vibrations. This theory was discovered by making measurements at 2 number of Points across a fault. Prior to an earthquake, it was noted that the rocks adjacent to the fault were bending (Figure 4.1-1). These bends disappeared after an earthquake suggesting that the energy stored in bending the rocks was suddenly released during the earthquake.PERE 0s aster Readiness and Risk Reduction How Do Seismic Waves Shake the Ground?

P (Primary) and S (Secondary) { waves are called body waves as these travel in the rocks below the surface of the earth. P and S waves radiate out from the rupturing fault.

Observe the direction of wave movement. How does the direction of motion of the waves differ from those in item 1, This kind of wave is called a secondary or shear (5) wave. What does shear means? How appropriate is shear wave as a name for this type of wave? 3. Move one end of the slinky up and down to generate a wave. This shows how the surface waves from earthquakes behave, Can you imagine how a building on the earth’s surface would behave while the ground makes a wave-like motion? Should we be worried with all kinds of seismic wave motion we are faced with during a big earthquake? Explain. If you were an engineer, what kind of ground motion will be your main concern when designing a building resistant to the strongest and most damaging type of earthquake shaking? How Ground Shaking is Measured? The strength of ground shaking (or that of the seismic waves) is measured in terms of velocity, acceleration, frequency content of the shaking, and how long the shaking continues (the “duration”). These terms are also used by scientists and engineers to describe the swaying motion of buildings and other structures as a reaction to the shaking of the ground during an earthquake. Though shaking is measured in many ways, the values of each of these representations may be derived from each other, For example, velocity is simply the product of frequency and amplitude of a seismic wave (Figure 4.1-4).. “yo arnaraarneraaaruaaenre: Noone cane era a)) = npiivge Tau Feary ie of arial of iro eration during an earthquake event varies from place to place, How ines ‘Goud shaking that a site may experience will depend on earthquake magnitude (which toa large degree Is related to fault length), depth of focus, distance from the epicenter, and the duration of shaking. The nature of the ground material or geology also determines the shaking reaction of the ground. As shallower earthquakes release energy from a position closer to the surface, the ground shaking or acceleration will be stronger. The ground acceleration can be calculated from many models relating only the magnitude.Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction Vocabulary or Definitions: Frequency - how often a vibration occurs. The unit of measurement is hertz (Hz) or cycles per second. The product of wavelength and frequency is velocity. Natural Frequency - the frequency at which a system naturally vibrates once it has been set into motion. The natural frequency depends on the stiffness and mass of the system. Period - the time (in seconds) it takes for one full cycle to occur. The period is equal to the reciprocal for frequency (1/ frequency). Acceleration - is the rate of change of velocity expressed as a ratio of the acceleration of gravity. between those for rock, medium-soil, and soft-soil foundations?

Does the presence of faults affect the value of g in certain places? For greater clarity, the succeeding sections will address these questions. Effects of Ground Shaking The horizontal component of seismic wave motion or shaking is the most destructive to buildings since it is easier to shake than to compress rocks. Both shear (S) waves and Love waves are destructive as both have horizontal components. Shear wave velocity is therefore a good measure of the intensity ground shaking. It can also be estimated from the characteristics of the rocks they pass through. Shear wave velocities of rocks, period, and frequency are often used in detailed assessment of the susceptibility of sites and buildings to ground shaking, The use of shear wave velocities for this purpose is discussed in detail in the next section. aie Ground shaking per se cannot harm you if you are in an open field, It is the failure a building due to Were design, poor construction, or weak foundation that cause people harm or death. The importance of the stability ofa building's contents is often overlooked in preventing injuries and fatalities. Understanding how vibration, due to an earthquake, affects foundations and buildings is critical in designing buildings and other structures to withstand shaking at a given site, Many destructive earthquakes hadbeen documented worldwide.

The most destructive earthquakes to have hit the country in modern times also include the 1968 Casiguran or Ruby Tower II earthquake and the 1990 Luzon earthquake. The collapse of the Ruby Tower in downtown Manila during the 1968 Casiguran earthquake caused death to 268 occupants of the 6-storey apartment building. The 1990 Luzon earthquake caused widespread damage due to ground shaking, liquefaction, and landslides. It also resulted in the death of about 1,600 people. Ground shaking caused the collapse of buildings in Baguio City and surrounding provinces and cities. Among the Baguio City landmarks that collapsed due to the ground-shaking were the Hyatt (Figure 4.1-6), Baguio Park (Figure 4.1-7), and Nevada Hotels. in Cabanatuan City, the intense ground shaking caused the collapse of the poorly constructed Christian Colleges of the Philippines. As the earthquake occurred during school hours, the collapse ofthe 6-storey school building resulted in the death 154 people who were mostly students. Other notable and recent destructive Philippine earthquakes include those that occurred in Negros (February 2012) and Bohol (October 2013), which resulted in magnitude 6.9 and magnitude 7.2 earthquakes, respectively.

Go is the shear modulus which is the ratio between the shearing stress (force per unit area) applied to an object and the resulting deformation (shearing strain). Shearing strain is a measure of the deformation that transforms an object like a rectangular prism into a parallelepiped. Shearing stress refers to the force applied parallel to one face while an equal force is applied to the opposite face. The more rigid a material is, the higher is its shear modulus as more force is required to attain deformation. For this reason, shear modulus is sometimes referred to as modulus of rigidity. It is given by: ‘ Go = Shear stress/Shear strain Shear stress = F/A, where F is the force which acts ‘ and Ais the area on which the force act. Shear strain = Ax/I, where Ox is the transverse > _ displacement of a body deformed by shearing aa and lis the initial length of the deforming body. For “bedrock” materials, the effect of the presence of cracks to the velocity of seismic shear waves is nearly the same as that of pores. Cracks in rocks like fractures and contacts between layers, affect seismic velocity by lowering it. Hardness, whichisa measure ofrelative density, also affects the shear wave velocity. Itis a measure of the strength and toughness of different rock types.

This breaking happens in much the same way a piece of rock does when struckhard enough with a hammer. One can try this but make sure to wear a protective device for the eyes (goggles) and other sensitive parts of your body. Rock failure that involves the slipping of lithosphere blocks past each other is called faulting. An earthquake is generated when a fault moves, as its frictional resistance could not match the large amount of stress related to plate motion (Figure 4.2-4).Gregory M., Gavin Hayes, Michael ge, Harley M. Benz, Antonio Villasenor, and Kevin P. Furlong, “Seismici '12 Philippine Sea plate and vicinity,” USGS Open-File Report: 2010-1083-m (2013) When an earthquake is strong enough, faulting ated at depths may earth’s surface to form a ground rupture, Faulting tends to Occur along zones of we such as old or pre-existing faults, fractures (or Tock breal ks not involving slip), orEarthquake Hazards bedding planes (contacts between sedimentary rock layers and between different types of rock). Stresses acting on broken rock masses need only to overcome frictional resistance along these old planes of weakness. It takes a lot more amount of stress to form new faults (and generate earthquakes) within stronger parts of the lithosphere. Some earthquake fault breaks called blind faults do not even reach the ground surface (Figure 4.2-5). Figure 4.2-6. Current Active Fault Map of the Philippines. The Philippine Fault Zone is relatively well known but details about its current branching, segmentation pattern, and activity are constantly being sought primarily by PHIVOLCS. More detailed trace mapping of other known active faults and investigation of yet unmapped active structures all over the country are also being Pursued aggressively. Source: PHIVOLCSPIRGDD is aster Readiness and Risk Reduction ) Active Faulting Formation of faults that includes precursor structures of ‘ faults has been going on for hundreds of millions of years since the inbospheretas beg subjected to stresses related to the motion of the plates. As ane Pp pens ene ses directions change, younger faults form but many of the older faul ts ace cards len the applied stress is large enough to overcome resistance along fault p| i a SHER y ate called active, as they had been found to have moved under the current si ie lave caused earthquakes during historical times and in the recent geologic past. ‘The most active faults are quite dangerous as large earthquakes originate very often (at short intervals) along them. Many of the faults that had formed, however, are deemed inactive as they have already healed and so are no longer capable of moving te senea earthquakes. Active faults show evidence that they have moved in the recent geologic past. Recency of activity is an indication of a fault’s tendency to give way to pressure under the current stress regime. Active faults are therefore more likely to give way and generate earthquakes in the near future. How recent is recent depends on where the term active fault isused and in some regions, the lower age limit could beas old as 2.5 million years (equivalent to the lower boundary of the Pleistocene epoch). For some, an even older geologic period is used as reference. The choice of a reference age is not entirely arbitrary. In the Philippines where the geologic history is relatively short and where seismicity is known to be relatively dense and frequent, a younger lower age limit is used. The end of the Pleistocene or the start of the Holocene epoch, which is roughly 10,000 years, is locally accepted as the older age limit of active faults. Figure 4.2-6 shows the known active faults in the Philippines. Their activity is related to the ongoing interactions of nearby plate boundaries within and around the Philippine islands. f earthquake-generating Factors Affecting the Character ics of Ground Ruptures ‘There are various factors which control the general nature and character of faulting. Some of these factors are specifically more relevant to the assessment of ground ruptute hazard. These determine how long ground ruptures are, how and by how much the earths surface breaks along ground ruptures, and whether deformation is limited along the narrow fault trace or affects a wider zone. These are th ick | i 7 le Most basic addressed to appreciate the danger which ground ru issuesithat nis deformation zones. Aside from ground rupture, faultin i . 1g caus depending on the type of faulting involved. Itmay cause leroy reer 8 many extension, or compression. Many places along the strike-slip aC ee ae rupture of the 19Earthquake Hazards Luzon earthquake moved almost wholly in a lateral fashion (Figure 4.2-7a). Ground ruptures, however, usually have both horizontal and vertical components, When the horizontal component of displacement is larger than the vertical, faulting is termed as strike-slip When the proportion of vertical component of displacement is larger, faulting is either normal (Figure 4.2-7b) or thrust (Figure 4.2-70). In these types of faulting, extension and compression of the ground across the fault is more pronounced. For large events similar to the magnitude 7.9 Northern Luzon earthquake of 1990, horizontal displacements may be more than five meters and vertical displacement could be in the order of a few meters (Figure 4.2-8). That event was generated by the motion of a segment ofthe Philippine Fault Zone (Digdig Fault), which is a strike-slip fault. The ground rupture length depends on the magnitude of the earthquake. Earthquakes with magnitude 6.5 or greater are generally strong enough to produce large-scale ground ruptures. The ground rupture of the 1990 Luzon earthquake (Figures 42-7 and 4.2; magnitude 7.9) is 120 km long, The 1994 Mindoro.earthquake (magnitude 7.2), on the other Figure 4.2-7. a) Strike-slip faulting along the ground rupture of the 1990 Luzon earthquake in Nueva Vizcaya.

Deformation consists ye of horizontal and/or vertical displacement along the fault | trace and folding or bending of | the adjacent area (Figure 4.2- 9a). Given the same level of earthquake magnitude, this zone is wider for normal and thrust faults, which could be as wide as a hundred meters or more. As a rule of thumb, the degree of danger to man-made structures is inversely proportional to distance to the ground rupture.

Do you recall what happens when opening a bottle of champagne that has just been shaken? The same build-up of pressure happens in a car's fuel tank when the volatile compounds of gasoline vaporize due to too much shaking caused by the motion of a car. This creates not only fire hazard but may also result in bulging of the gas tank and leak in the fuel lines. The formation of sand volcanoes and sand boils during liquefaction is related to the build-up of pressure when the ground shakes during an earthquake. The process of liquefaction turns the ground into a material with quicksand-like consistency, messing up extensive areas including many cities, farmlands, fishponds, and places where roads, bridges, and pipelines run through. Since time immemorial, man has come to like living alongside rivers, deltas or mouths of rivers, and coastal areas. Why not? Bodies of water give us food and livelihood, provide convenient mode of transportation, host great vacation and recreation spots, and for some, ) solve plenty of waste disposal issues. If not managed wisely, the use of many reclaimed areas that host commercial structures, seaports, airp and many other facilities could cause losses, damages, and casualties to their inhabita How Does Liquefaction Occur? When the ground shakes, some areas especially those made of wet fine sand are subjected to liquefaction. This happened in Dagupan during the 1990 Luzon earthquake which, at magnitude 7.9, was strong enough to cause liquefaction (it only takes a Figure 4.3-1.

Oakland, California: Earthquake Engineering Research Institute. Flow Failures. Considered the most dangerous type of ground failure due to liquefaction, this occurs on liquefiable slope material with steepness greater than 3 degrees. Blocks of overlying material slide down so fast (as much as. 10 kms/hr) that these reach distances tens of kilometers from the source, Lateral Spreads. Blocks or the broken pieces of the flat or very gentle ground (less than 3 degrees) above a liquefied zone move laterally. Ground Oscillation. Due to the flat or nearly flat slope, the ground is unable to spread and instead oscillates like a wave (back and forth and up and down). Water and wet sand are ejected through the fissures that form conical-shaped mounds of sand at the surface (sand blows)PB iat easiness and Risk Reduction Loss of Bearing Strength.

Effects of Liquefaction on Buildings and Other Structures Liquefaction causes some of the most striking ground failures and damages to ioe structures (Figure 4.3-3). Damage during liquefaction results from the settle structures into the soil, flow landslides, laterally spreading landslides, and the eje -Induced Subsidence ed Settlement. The eruption of boils leads to localized differential settlements, Flow failure, lateral spreading, and loss of bearing strength can also cause large vertical readjustments when earthquake shaking has subsided. Tectonic Subsidence. Significant subsidence often accompany the ground rupture process. The amount of subsidence will depend on how large the vertical displacement component is. Lake and ponds may form on the downthrown side near the fault where the vertical displacement is usually greatest. The amount of subsidence diminishes with distance away from the fault.

Figures 4.3-4 and 4.3-5 are examples of damages due to the 1990 Luzon and 2013 Bohol earthquakes. Sinking, spreading, and cracking of the ground due to New Zealand's 2010 and 2011 Canterbury earthquakes also caused buildings to collapse, pipes and tanks to float and break, poles to fall, cables to break, and streets and gardens to be covered with silt coming out to the surface. Here are some notable earthquakes which have caused significant liquefaction: The magnitude 9.2 Alaskan earthquake happened on March 28, 1964 lasted for four minutes, making it the second largest recorded earthquake. Its strength caused liquefaction and avalanches, which caused extensive damage to Alaska and its major cities. Although the death toll (131) was small, structural damage amounted to US$300-400M. The earthquake in Loma Prieta, California was another massive earthquake. Measuring a magnitude 7.1, it caused the ground to shake as much as 0.659 near the epicenter. Because of the wide distribution of weak soil in California, strong ground motions were extensive that caused great damage to airport runways, bridges, and marine stations. The magnitude 6.9 1995 Kobe (Japan) earthquake is known as one of the most destructive earthquakes to have hit Japan. More than 5,500 people were killed and over 26,000 injured in the quake. Kobe is the most highly developed region. in Japan ever hit by an earthquake and it caused about US$200 B in structural damages. Figure 43-4.

Dense sediments and well-compacted fills are less susceptible to liquefaction. the greater is its susceptibility to iefaction, the more recent a sediment Deposits which had been subjected to liquefaction can liquefy again. Thus, liquefaction hazard zones should also include areas known to have experienced liquefaction during historic earthquakes. The distribution of liquefaction deformation features would also depend on the areal extent of the liquefiable sediment layer, the slope of the surface, and on the distribution buildings and other structures that will add to the load applied on sediments. Figure 4.3-6 shows a regional liquefaction hazard map for the entire Philippines. More detailed maps are prepared by PHIVOLCS.

Why Landslides Occur A change in the stability of a slope can be caused by a number of factors acting together or alone.

Types of Landslide Landslides detach, transport, and deposit earth materials such as solid or loose and soil. Aside from earthquakes, landslides may be triggered by a variety of natural and man’s acti ies. i Table 4.4-2 shows the abundance of the type of earthquake-induced land ased on data from 75% worldwide earthquakes occurring until the latter part of 20th century where landslides had been reported. The most abundant types of histo earthquake-induced landslides from steep slopes are rock falls, rock slides, and soil $I involving shallow or thin slope failures. On gentler slopes, earth spreads, earth i oe aes and earth avalanches are the most abundant. More recent data, rom earthquakes in Central Asia (e.g., China, Pakistan, et z ° rh avalanches (complex type), and flows dominate.

Rock falls involve chunks of detached rock that fall freely for some distance or bounce and roll down the steep slope. Slides involve large blocks of bedrock that break free and slide down along a planar or curved surface. Lateral spreads are triggered by earthquakes and affect gentle slopes with less than 10 degrees inclination. Slope material loses cohesion through liquefaction caused by the shaking during earthquakes. Flows involve downslope motion of fine grained clay, silt, and fine sand made mobile by water saturation. These flows include mudflows and earthflows and are common during the rainy season. Complex slides are combinations of two or more types of movement. Figure 44-4 ic an example of a complex slide that occurred in Leyte. Figure 4.4-5 shows the early stage ofa slide that might develop into a complex or simpler type of sie. Factors Affecting Occurrence of Landslides For a real-world landslide to occur, the downslope component of the force acting on ‘a rock mass must overcome the shearing strength of the material and cause it to separate from adjoining stationary rock before moving downslope. When a slide occurs, either the force acting on the material increased or the shearing resistance of the material was lowered. Landslides are common during earthquakes because both of these conditions are induced by ground shaking. Depending on the type of slope material, the steepness of the slope and strength-related properties of the materials involved, various types of landslide may occur during an earthquake. The properties of rocks that contribute to total resistance to shearing forces include 1) intact rock strength, 2) mass weathering grade, 3) spacing of joint, 4) orientation of joints, 5) ‘width and continuity of joints, 6) infill, and 7) outflows of groundwater.figure 4-4-3, The various specific types of Janisldes based on movement and. ‘type of material involved, Source vitesse rona/s7a/s 2004 sant a Intactrockstrength, Feferstoaro ck'S reactionto standard, laboratory tests tod \gth. The results of. estimatior n by "simple Means” m;a: Mass weathering grade of soils and rocks is one of the most important properties that the engineering geologist has to consider when dealing with slope stability issues. Weathering of rocks results in physical and chemical changes due to external processes. Physical and chemical weathering lead to the opening of discontinuities and changes in chemical composition of rock minerals, Weathering grade determination relies heavily on visual descriptions and on a number of simple tests. Weathering grade of rocks ranges from the fresh or unweathered state to the completely weathered. Residual weathered state is when a rock is completely transformed into soil and therefore has lost any strength. ‘The spacing of joints is another property to consider. The term joint as used in its engineering sense refers to the different types of discontinuities such as fracture, fault, or bedding plain. Spacing here refers to the distance between joints alongaline. tis important because all cohesive strength is lost along an open joint. The greater the volume of joint in a rock mass, the weaker is that mass. The orientation of joints with respect to the slope becomes increasingly unfavorable for slope instability as the dip out of a rock face becomes steeper. Its most favorable for stability against sliding when the dip is into the slope. Width and continuity of joints influences frictional and cohesive strength as well as water movement in the rock mass. Wide joints have no cohesive strength and frictional strength can only develop at the point of contact of rock on either side of the joint fajoint is limited in the area, it will have little effect on the strength of the rock mass. But if itis. continuous, it provides a ready-made plane along which shearing movements can occur. ied on February 17, 2006 due to a massive rock slide- din Guinsaugon village in the town of Saint Bernard, Souther Leyte, The deadly landslide was triggered by a heavy ran that lasted for ten days and a minor earthquake (magnitude 2.6) source: http//landslides.uses.gov/learn/photos/international/2006_guinsaugon_ village._leyte_island_philippines.fandslide/phillppineb1.jpg (Official U.S. Navy Photo by Photographer's Mate 1st Class Michael D.

An incipient landslide in front of a school building in Kore (ifugao) that might develop into a rotational or a complex type of slide. The importance of infill as a factor is highlighted by the presence of materials suchas clay. Fthe whole joints filled with clay, for example, the strength along the joint will be that of the clay and not that of the rack. Water flow in a joint is far more important than water in rock pores. It is the waterin fissures or clefts which influences rock mass strength when we speak of cleft water pressures. High rates of water flow and infilling of fissures with water can cause a buoyancy effect on the rock above a saturated joint. The only way this can be assessed, aside from drilling awell into the rock mass, is by measuring the amount of water flowing out of the rock. i Areas Prone to Landslides During Earthquakes or Landslide Hazard Zoning When maps are drawn showin i e \g landslide s are considered including the stren a the landscape.

Steepness of slopes is the most important factor controlling the occurrence of landslides; more landslides tend to occur as the slope become steeper. Rain-induced landslides tend to occur at slopes with lower gradients. Relief is also a significant factor controlling the location of landslides. Earthquake-induced landslides occur at higher parts of the slope closer to the ridge, while rain-induced landslides occur mostly at the lower parts of the slope and closer to the river. Seismic waves are amplified by higher topographic relief. This has been explained by resonance involving a high topographic feature (Boore 1972), just as the shaking of a tall building is amplified by seismic waves with frequencies comparable to that of the building, It has also been explained in terms of the interference of reflected and diffracted seismic waves which tend to be greater in ridge crests resulting in greater shaking on these topographic highs (Bard 1982). The influence of slope angle alone in determining proneness to earthquake-induced landslides is not straightforward. In some cases, especially in rocks, steeper slopes are more prone to instability. In others, especially in soft sediments, gentle slopes produce most of the mass movements, indicating that the combined effect of slope and geology has to be taken into consideration, Steepness of slopes, however, can determine what type of earthquake- induced landslides may be triggered: lateral spreads in flat areas, large landslides on steeper (30° and more) slopes rather than on gentler slopes, or rock falls on steep cliffs. The direction that a slope faces (aspect) also plays a role in where landslides occur during an earthquake. Landslides tend to cluster on slopes where the aspect is facing away from the source of the earthquake. The surface curvature also has an influence on selsmic slope stability; particularly, convex surface morphologies are prone to seismic slope failure. Large landslides tend to occur on vertically convex slopes rather than on concave slopes. The geological factors that determine which part of the landscape are prone to landslides are those that contribute to low strength of rock or soil materials. The low strength may be related to weak cementation, intense weathering, intense shearing of rocks, high rater saturation, and poor compaction. Structural elements of rocks such as bedding, foliation, and sediment-rock contact are akin to spacing of joints. studies of earthquake induced-landslides in many parts of the world also showed that they occur on surfaces with signs of weakened slopes due to the presence of weak, highly- sheared rocks of old fault zones and old landslide scars. Other geologic conditions on slopes thot facilitate land sliding include hard fractured rocks underlain by less resistant rocks or loose accumulationsof fine-grained surface debris (ed clay, silt, and fine sand). As seismic waves propagate away from the source, there will be less of a chance that a landslide will occur in areas farther from the origin of earthquakes. Indeed, it has been observed that seismic landslide ‘occurrence is strongly dependent onthe proximity of fault ruptures. Tectonic influence is shown by the preference of landslides to occur in the hanging jslides were observed in the mountains close to the ground ive faults.

A substantial part of the total a of lives, injuries, and damage to structures due to earthquakes may be attributed to burial and debris impact caused by earthquake-induced landslides. There are numerous examples of earthquakes where loss of lives due to earthquake-induced ground failure have been significant (as much as 30% in mountainous regions). The more than 56,000 earthquake- induced landslides due to the M7.9 Wenchuan, China, earthquake on May 12, 2008, for example, caused about one third of the estimated 88,000 total deaths. The landscape | was not spared from the ugly effect of earthquake-induced landslides. One of the worlds 1 strongest earthquakes (M9.2) in May 1960 caused major and minor landslides in South: — Central Chile. The 3 largest individual landslides alone had a total volume of 40 million. | The M 9.2 Alaska earthquake in 1964, on the other hand, affected an area of about 260,000 | km? (land area of the Philippines is ~300,000 km’). Figure 4.4-6.

The least susceptible areas to earthquake-triggered landslides are the low-lying flat terranes. Source: PHIVOLCS Ground failure is less likely to cause spectacular structural collapses, but is frequently the cause of major disruptions, particularly to lifelines, which can lead to prolonged loss of function and income, even for undamaged areas. The destruction of lifelines may delay rescue relief and rehabilitation operations. The destruction of major lifelines such as those damaged during the 1990 Luzon earthquake including the Marcos Highway, Kennon Road, and Dalton pass affected the Philippine economy. Slides can cause disastrous flooding, particularly when landslide dams across streams are breached and flooding may trigger more slides, Sedimentation due to landslides also changes river morphology. Other environmental effects caused by landslides include the alteration of agriculture and changes to natural ecosystems. One of the major impacts to both the natural and built environment is the complete relocation of some human populations and infrastructure to new areas, resulting in the abandonment of towns and other areas that were damaged by the earthquake and landslides.PEIDI isester Readiness and Risk Reduction use flooding.

Examine the legend or explanation of the landslide susceptibility map in Figure 4.4-8. What are the criteria used in delineating areas susceptible to landslide as high, moderate, and low? Compare these with those for earthquake-induced landslides. What mapping criteria are common for both earthquake-induced landslides and rainfall-induced landslides? Using the lists in (2) for the criteria used in identifying areas susceptible to rainfall- and earthquake-induced landslides, identify which criteria are unique for earthquake- induced landslides. Using the map in Figure 4.4-8 for rainfall-induced landslides, delineate the areas using these criteria, What color do you wish to assign to these areas? Are any of these areas already part of the highly susceptible areas in. the rainfall- induced landslides hazard map? If so, how do you propose to rephrase the description forthese zones that are also prone to earthquake-induced landslides? Would you rather upgrade the classification of moderately susceptible areas that are also susceptible to earthquake-induced landslides to highly susceptible areas? Why or why not? Each group shall report to the class their results Measures to Mitigate Effects of Landslides What are some of the things that individuals and families can do to prepare for landslides and to prevent landslides from occurring within your community? Recognizing and reporting any sign of slope instability to local authorities and neighbors in your community is an important step. Make a list of whom you should contact if an emergency involving landslides is suspected. Local residents and officials can work together in monitoring and preventing construction and other activities on unstable slopes that can aggravate landslides and endanger people's lives. Atthe community level, provisions should be made for food, water, blankets, medicines, and other supplies needed for possible prolonged isolation due to destruction of roads by future landslides. Communities must also stabilize part of the landscape with incipien Marks before it develops into a full-blown landslide. Biological messes a epee of deeply-rooting trees hold slope material together and reduces the slope's water load Though more costly, engineering remedial measures such as landslide barriers ny drainage structures are effective in preventing landslides.
