Tsunami Effects of the February 27, 2010 Chile Earthquake Ian Robertson, Univ. of Hawaii Gary Chock, Martin & Chock Juan Morla, Martin & Chock March 20, 2010 EERI Survey Debrief Ian Robertson, Univ. of Hawaii Gary Chock, Martin & Chock Juan Morla, Martin & Chock March 20, 2010 EERI Survey Debrief

Tsunami Focus  Team Members:  Ian Robertson, Ph.D., P.E., Professor, University of Hawaii  Gary Chock, P.E., Principal, Martin & Chock Inc.  Juan Morla, P.E., Structural Engineer, Martin & Chock Inc.  Objectives:  Survey coastal region around Concepcion/Talcahuano for tsunami damage  Attempt to distinguish between damage induced by earthquake ground-shaking and tsunami inundation  Determine whether earthquake damage lead to reduction in tsunami resistance  Particular attention on debris impact and scour effects.  Team Members:  Ian Robertson, Ph.D., P.E., Professor, University of Hawaii  Gary Chock, P.E., Principal, Martin & Chock Inc.  Juan Morla, P.E., Structural Engineer, Martin & Chock Inc.  Objectives:  Survey coastal region around Concepcion/Talcahuano for tsunami damage  Attempt to distinguish between damage induced by earthquake ground-shaking and tsunami inundation  Determine whether earthquake damage lead to reduction in tsunami resistance  Particular attention on debris impact and scour effects.

Tsunami Observations  Tsunami damage was highly directional  Timber framed residential structures were destroyed or severely damaged by the tsunami inundation  Reinforced concrete and constrained masonry buildings generally performed well  Significant scour around bridge and building foundations lead to a number of failures  Tsunami-induced fluidization of loose fill material appears to have contributed to wharf and pier failures in Talcahuano bay  Tsunami debris in the form of ships and shipping containers resulted in impact damage to port facilities  Tsunami damage was highly directional  Timber framed residential structures were destroyed or severely damaged by the tsunami inundation  Reinforced concrete and constrained masonry buildings generally performed well  Significant scour around bridge and building foundations lead to a number of failures  Tsunami-induced fluidization of loose fill material appears to have contributed to wharf and pier failures in Talcahuano bay  Tsunami debris in the form of ships and shipping containers resulted in impact damage to port facilities
