Effects of earthquake of March 27, 1964, at Anchorage, Alaska
Damage was caused by direct seismic vibration, by ground cracks, and by landslides; direct seismic vibration affected chiefly multistory buildings and buildings having large floor areas; triggering of landslides by earthquake was related to physical-engineering properties of Bootlegger Cove Clay, glacial estuarine-marine deposit that underlies much of Anchorage area; most of destructive landslides moved primarily by translation rather than by rotation; physical and mechanical properties of clay, description of damage.
