Liquefaction Effects in San Carlo (Sant’Agostino, Ferrara)

San Carlo is approximately 17 km far from the epicentre. In the following document, an overview of some of the mostly-affected areas in San Carlo is shown. Field measurements, carried out by the Eucentre field teams, aims to quantify the incidence of the liquefaction phenomenon.
