Abstract

This study conducts a comprehensive analysis of the seismicity in the city of Adana, alongside an assessment of the status of structures that either sustained damage or collapsed due to the Kahramanmaraş earthquakes. The research indicates that Adana City and its surrounding areas are situated near active fault lines. The seismic events associated with these faults, both regarding the recent Kahramanmaraş earthquakes and previous occurrences, have resulted in significant loss of life and property in Adana and its vicinity. Therefore, it is essential to thoroughly evaluate the current condition of structures within Adana City and its neighboring regions and implement urgent measures to address those structures that show deficiencies in earthquake resistance.

Keywords: Adana, earthquake, fault, reinforced concrete, seismic belt
