Cracks and visual damage yes, but it shouldn't collapse.Earthquake building codes in Japan 2016-04-17 11:42 JSTWilliam here with a bit of news about water supply infrastructure. Damage initially caused by the Thursday quake was exacerbated by the Saturday quake. As an example, the Ryujin Bridge over Shirakawa, which primarily functions as a water conduit to feed the Toroku and Oe areas, completely collapsed, taking the conduit with it. (April 22 update from Kirk: The collapse of Ryujin Bridge was reported at the time but proved not to be true. I visited the bridge today and, not only was it still standing, cars were passing over it as usual.)Detailed info is difficult to come by; likely, even the pros do not know. However, my uncle who works in construction said water should return to some areas from Monday. The return will be sporadic, with some areas receiving water before others. Also, those living in condominiums may face further delays due to building infrastructure damage, particularly roof-top tanks.Finally, Kumamoto City has called again for water conservation. The majority of bottled water stored by the city has already been distributed, though supplies from the national government are expected. Of particular worry is the health of those hospitalized and the sanitation of those facilities.http://mainichi.jp/articles/20160417/ddl/k43/040/160000c熊本地震:M7.3 日常生活大混乱、深い傷痕 /熊本 - 毎日新聞 2016-04-17 13:28 JSTPeople in higashiku should have water now! The city asks that you try running a faucet. If it's clear, then you can use it. If it's dirty, please try running it for minute or so. If it starts to run clear, you may use it. If not, please refrain from drinking or using it for food. 2016-04-17 11:42 JSTJapan Meteorological Agency | Earthquake Information (this post) 2016-04-17 09:54 JSTWilliam here - some have asked about volcanic activity at Aso. There was an extremely small-level eruption from 08:00 on Saturday, but it appears unrelated to the quake. The Japan Meterological Agency has not changed its current status of Level 2 (second-lowest concern). Looks like that's one less thing to worry about. http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20160416/k10010483081000.html阿蘇山中岳 ごく小規模な噴火発生 気象庁 | NHKニュース 2016-04-17 07:39 JSTPost 2016-04-17 01:38 JSTThe Self Defense Force is expected to being 3 days worth of food for evacuees (estimated at 90,000 people) and have it delivered by the 18th.
