Abstract
    Three large-scale earthquakes, with magnitudes 7.1, 6.2 and 6.0, hit the Canterbury region on the South Island of New Zealand in September 2010, February 2011 and June 2011, respectively. Especially, the second large earthquake, 2011 Christchurch earthquake, caused most serious damage to lifelines and residential houses in the Christchurch city due to liquefaction and re-liquefaction. This report summarizes results of the liquefaction-induced damage survey immediately after these events. [This abstract is not included in the PDF]
