Structural damage was identified at a limited number of buildings and consisted of classical shear cracking of short (captive) columns; failure of concrete beam/truss supports; shifting/cracking of foundation elements in low-rise wood-frame structures; cracking/displacement of concrete masonry block; shifting/partial collapse of unreinforced cement rubble masonry elements; and isolated failures of retaining wall anchors. Nonstructural damage was common and consisted of damage to suspended ceiling systems; damage to concrete masonry elements such as infill walls and column covers; minor cracking/spalling of concrete; and cosmetic damage to brittle wall finishes. Isolated structural and nonstructural damage resulting from soil failure/settlement was also observed. The observations indicate that structural damage typically relates to well known deficiencies in structural systems. Nonstructural damage was consistent with expectations given intensity of ground shaking.
