First Person: Monumental Challenge
On Tuesday, August 23, 2011, at approximately 1:51 PM (eastern daylight time), an earthquake with a moment magnitude of 5.8 was recorded by the U.S. Geological Survey within the Central Virginia Seismic Zone. Centered near Mineral, Virginia, approximately 84 mi southwest of Washington, D.C., the earthquake occurred at an approximate depth of 3.7 mi below the surface and was followed by several aftershocks with moment magnitudes ranging from 2.0 to 4.5. The U.S. Geological Survey has confirmed that this event was the most widely felt earthquake in U.S. history, and among the structures that sustained damage was the Washington Monument, long considered the centerpiece of the National Mall. This is the story of its postearthquake assessment, stabilization, and repair design.
