000020052 520__ $$2eng$$aOn Saturday, April 16, 2016 a massive magnitude-7.8 earthquake rocked Pedernales Canton, Ecuador. Widespread damage was caused across Manabí province, with structures hundreds of miles from the epicenter collapsing. In general, all levels of damage were observed, from small cracks to completely collapsed buildings. The damage in each building was dependent on the structural system, poor seismic detailing, poor construction practices, quality of materials, and intensity of the ground motion. This paper presents selected structural reconnaissance observations from the main M7.8 Pedernales, Ecuador earthquake, including types of construction, common practices, failures and typical damage observed and will focus on the typical construction type of buildings observed in the affected areas: reinforced concrete structures with flat slabs. The complete report will be shared by the US-Ecuador Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance (GEER) team via the GEER website: http://www.geerassociation.org/.
