dc.description.abstractThis paper presents the fndings of feld observations conducted in the aftermath of the earthquakes that struck the Pazarcik (Mw7.7) and Elbistan (Mw7.6) in Kahramanmaras province, Turkey on February 6th, 2023. The earthquakes, occurring on the East Anatolian Fault Zone (EAFZ), resulted in more than 50,000 losses of life and damage of more than 1.5 million properties across 11 provinces in Turkey. Field observations presented herein encompass seismological and strong ground motion data, geotechnical observations, as well as damage assessments of underground and above ground structures in various provinces and districts. The types and reasons of the structural damages were discussed. The study also examined the efects of high acceleration values and distribution of strong ground motions on the performance of structures. Soil liquefaction problems were observed in many locations such as Golbasi and Iskenderun. The paper highlights the geology, tectonics, strong motion characteristics, surface deformations, geotechnical and structural aspects, and the evaluation of lifelines in the afected area. Furthermore, the authors provide initial recommendations for improving disaster management, evaluating building stock, prioritizing urban transformation, strengthening infrastructure systems, addressing soil-building interaction issues, ensuring security measures during search and rescue eforts, utilizing satellite imagery efectively, considering seismic efects on water infrastructure, and taking a holistic approach to earthquake efects in industrial facilities.
