87 Pisco, Peru Earthquake, 2007

88 Embankment and roadway failure at Pan American Highway km 190. The picture was taken facing north. Note the Pacific Ocean in the top left of the photo. The damage was caused by liquefaction of the wet coastal silty soils that led to lateral spreading and subsequent embankment failure. Ground waves moving from west to east appeared to have reflected off the more rigid material on the right.

89 Paved shoulder on the east side of the Pan American Highway was shoved up against the ridge in the background when liquefied coastal soils sloshed laterally.

90 Pavement damage from liquefaction Pan American Highway km 220 near San Clemente, Peru

91 Severe cracking of Pier 2 (from South end) necessitates extensive repair but the horizontal shear blocks managed to retrain lateral movement of the superstructure.

92 Multiple hazard Issue: Huachinga Bridge on Rte 110 at km 39. This steel truss bridge has suffered severe damage to the bottom chord from debris impact. There is a large granite boulder jammed between the two channels of the bottom chord that has fallen from the adjacent mountain from this earthquake.
