Summary

Description
English: Earthquake damage caused to the Imperial County Services Building in the 1979 Imperial Valley earthquake, Southern California.
  • The support pillar failed at the east end of the Imperial County Services Building in El Centro. The concrete at the base of the columns was shattered and the vertical reinforced bars were severely bent, allowing the building to sag about 30 centimetres (12 in).
  • This 6-story reinforced concrete frame and shear wall structure, designed to be earthquake resistant, was completed in 1971 at a construction cost of $1.87 million.
  • The building was later destroyed and rebuilt by the County of Imperial.
