/Subtype /Image Back slip over a portion of the Appalachian detachment approximately corresponding to the Coastal Plain of South Carolina fits some of the data including coseismic and post seismic strain indicators. At 7.3 magnitude, the Charleston earthquake of 1886 was the largest quake to ever hit the Eastern United States. This earthquake killed at least 60 people and destroyed much of the city. 200 13 1970 Stress reversals corresponding to earthquake cycles may characterize the stress field within detached sheets or wedges that move primarily by great detachment earthquake ruptures.Appendices are available with entire article on microfiche. These strains are consistent with a southeastward slip of the detached crystalline sheet associated with the 1886 earthquake.

Earthquakes by Kaye M. Shedlock and Louis C. Pakiser Many buildings in Charleston, South Carolina, were damaged or destroyed by the large earth quake that occurred August 31,1886. Near‐source effects such as ground fissuring, liquefaction, changes in line‐of‐sight, foreshocks, and aftershocks occurred over a wide area of the Coastal Plain and neighboring Inner Piedmont, which we tentatively refer to as the meizoseismal area. /Type /XObject The Citadel – Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering Pictorial Summary of Damage • Many buildings in Charleston survived the 1886 Basins and Moho Reflections, Deep Seismic Reflection Constraints on Palaeozoic Crustal Structure and Definition of the Moho in the Buried Southern Appalachian Orogen, Continental Lithosphere: Deep Seismic Reflections, The 1886–1889 aftershocks of the Charleston, South Carolina, Earthquake: A Widespread burst of seismicity, Recent vertical crustal movements near Charleston, South Carolina, Gravity anomalies and flexure of the lithosphere at mountain ranges, Advancements in seismological science (1979–1985), Recurrence rates of large earthquakes in the South Carolina Coastal Plain based on paleoliquefaction data, Neotectonism along the Atlantic passive continental margin: A review, Seismicity along the Atlantic Seaboard of the U.S.; Intraplate neotectonics and earthquake hazard, Contemporary Tilting in the Central Atlantic Coastal Plain?, startxref On August 31, 1886, Charleston, South Carolina, experienced the most damaging earthquake in the eastern United States. *YӞ7�Y^Ŭ��:��H2bj��HUo+��\�ܻz�Q��-� �]�W\���"��_��Ǟ�pD�Y/�F��脒D��U�8�0������p� ~;���j�9
