Structural Damage in the March 2005 Nias-Simeulue Earthquake
Abstract
Nias and Simeulue islands, which are west of Sumatra, suffered structural damage, largely from shaking, during a large earthquake on 28 March 2005. This earthquake occurred in roughly the same epicentral area as the 26 December 2004 Great Sumatra earthquake. Within a few days of the 28 March earthquake, a team set out from Jakarta to survey the earthquake damage on both islands.
