The Chi-Chi earthquake was the most violent one among those earthquakes occurred on land during this century. Many large dams and tunnels located within 50 km circle of the epicenter were shaked by violent ground tremble. After careful inspection of those structures, no significant damages except Shikang dam whose vertical alignment was abruptly changed by differential ground uplifts. As for tunnels, only the outlet tunnel of Shikang dam collapsed due to ground offset. From overall review, current geotechnique for dams in Taiwan have passed a severe challenge during the earthquake. Incidentally, earthquake resistance characteristics of tunnel has been proven in many tunnels during this earthquake.
