Spent 6 months in Christchurch after the quake there, if it's anything to go by (Ecuadorian standards could be different) lots of cracks are not a good sign for the building.waiting for a structural engineer to see if the place is condemed or if we can move back in,lots of cracks in the walls no power or water.
Travelled through a lot of the area a few years ago, still know a few locals on facebook posting photos, the towns just look flattened. It must be a terrible experience, add in the aftershocks as well and it just keeps going on.
