The study presented here of the characteristics of this event and the experience lived at that time by that country, allows to evaluate and compare equally the state of the art in earthquake resistance in the urban axis of the cities Barquisimeto - Cabudare, either in the governmental and social organization, with the purpose of improving the capacity to respond to a seismic event.
