Why was the 2011 Christchurch earthquake so damaging?
Although the 2011 Christchurch, New Zealand earthquake registered 6.3 on the Richter scale the damage caused was very great. The main reason was the peak ground acceleration (PGA) exceeded 1.8g's ( 1 g is equal to the acceleration due to gravity or 9.8 meters per second squared ). This PGA is extremely high and very rare and would cause many cities in the world to be completely leveled. Other reasons the quake caused so much damage where the depth of the epicenter was only 3 miles, the land displacement was approximately 50cm ( after the quake subsided ) and there where probably seismic waves rebounding back into the city having been reflected off the basaltic Port Hills outside the city.

Was new zealand prepared for the christchurch earthquake?
There are maps showing the pattern of shallow seismology, and Christchurch generally is not in the quietest areas. The particular sets of recent faults were not known of - they had not revealed their existence previously. But for example the spire of the Christchurch Cathedral had been damaged three times previously by earthquakes. And in more recent times, the regional Authority had issued maps of unstable ground known of in the city area. However, The Earthquake Commission is well aware of the need for All New Zealanders to be prepared for an earthquake, and each household is expected to have about three days of water and food as an emergency store. This is promoted for example in all the telephone books. Many folk are quite uncomfortable about preparing for a disaster, and ignore these precautions. Earthquake commission is doing its efforts to bring the Christchurch back as it was.
