Reality CheckReality Check
Richter Scale (Magnitude)• Relative measure of how much energy is released by an earthquake• Does not say anything about how much the ground moves• Mitigating factors (location of rupture, depth , soil type)• Example:
1907 Earthquake 7.9 on the Richter scale1989 Loma Prieta 6.9 on the Richter scale
Modified Mercalli Scale (Intensity)• Measure of ground shaking intensity at a specific location

Loma Prieta Retrofit Success“In 1989, at the corner of Center and Elm Streets in downtown Santa Cruz, architect Michael O'Hearn unwittingly created a laboratory for the study of seismic retrofit design. On that corner, at 214 and 210 Elm Street, were two identical Victorian style homes. The twin homes were built by the same builder, with identical materials and using the same construction techniques. When O'Hearn bought them in 1984, he started by retrofitting #210. Unfortunately he had not yet retrofitted #214 before the Loma Prieta earthquake hit on Oct. 17, 1989.The Home at 214 Elm Street "came apart in four sections," O'Hearn said. However, 210 Elm Street, with its plywood shear panels and bolted foundation, suffered only minor damage. "The one we had retrofitted (210 Elm St.) cost us $5,000 to repair. The other one (214 Elm St.) cost us $260,000 to repair. The whole building had to be jacked up, repaired, and slid back on a new foundation."

Northridge Home Retrofit Success
“A family spent $3200 in 1993 retrofitting their home built in 1911. None of their neighbors did any work. When the 1994 Northridge earthquake hit, this home was the only one on both sides of the street for two blocks that was not damaged.” James Russell, Codes Consultant
