The damage due to buildings and infrastructure in the March 11, 2012 earthquake, tsunami, and resulting fires and explosions is estimated over $180 billion or 3 percent of Japan's annual economic output.
Other estimates up to US $300 billion for reconstruction excluding costs caused by the Fukushima nuclear accident.
What else can I help you with?
How is the distance from the epicenter related to the amount of earthquake damage?
The more energy, the more damage it can cause.
What kind of damage can a 0.7 earthquake cause?
None at all. A magnitude 0.7 earthquake would be an instrumental earthquake, meaning it can be picked up on seismometers, but otherwise is not noticeable.
Which earthquake fault cause the most damage strike slip reverse or normal?
The amount of damage caused by an earthquake fault does not depend on the type of fault (strike-slip, reverse, normal). The severity of damage is mainly influenced by factors such as the magnitude of the earthquake, the depth of the focus, the distance from populated areas, and the building codes in place.
Are earthquakes cause more damage near the epicenter?
Yes, earthquakes typically cause more severe damage near the epicenter because the energy released decreases as you move away from the epicenter. The intensity of shaking and resulting damage decreases with distance from the source.
A break in the crust along which rock move is a?
The break is a fault in the rock that can lead to an earthquake, whose tremors can cause much damage to property and death.
Will the earthquake in Japan affect anime production?
I think it will cause it was in Tokyo and manga is also realised in Tokyo
What is a large earthquake?
A "large" earthquake can be a major or great earthquake, both of which can cause serious damage to people, animal life, and buildings.A major earthquake is one of magnitude 7 - 7.9 which can cause serious damage. A great earthquake has a magnitude 8.0 or greater which can completely destroy communities near the epicenter.The 9.1 magnitude earthquake that hit Japan on March 11, 2011, is an example of a very large or great earthquake.
Can shaking during an earthquake cause significant damage to buildings and infrastructure?

How bad can an earthquake damage a state?
It can cause major disruption.
Which seismic waves cause most of damage during an earthquake?
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.
