Abstract

An Ms5. 1 earthquake occurred on January 23,2013 at Liutiaozhai Town in Dengta City of Liaoning Province. The epicentral intensity of the earthquake is Ⅵ,and the earthquake results in varying degrees of building damage. The structural features and typical damage of buildings in the towns located in Ⅵ intensity areas was introduced,and the main damage ratios of brick- wood and brick masonry buildings were presented. At the same time,some damage characteristics in Ⅵ intensity areas and earthquake resistant problems for Liaoning Province were briefly discussed.
