Various damages occur in the engineering structures on the earth due to the earthquake, which is a natural disaster. Depending on the magnitude of the earthquakes, the shape of the earth can change and the engineering structures on the earth are affected. Earthquake damages are most evident in cities. In this study, evaluations were made on the damages on the surface in the vicinity of Adapazarı and the structures in the Marmara earthquake which occurred on August 17, 1999 and which is 7.4 magnitude according to Richter scale. In addition, the results of three-axis dynamic loading tests carried out in order to show the effect of earthquake loads on the undisturbed soil samples taken from the locations in Adapazarı city center were analyzed and the effect of earthquake loads on soft soils were examined.
