Northridge, California Earthquake of January 17, 1994: Performance of Gas Transmission Pipelines
On January 17, 1994 at 4:31 a.m., a magnitude 6.6 earthquake struck the Los Angeles metropolitan area. Epicentered in the San Fernando Valley town of Northridge, California, the earthquake caused serious damage to buildings and sections of elevated freeways; ignited at least one hundred fires as it ruptured gas pipelines; and disrupted water supply systems. This reconnaissance report provides a performance analysis of gas transmission lines, both during this earthquake and during previous earthquakes, in Southern California.
