Flooding because of dam failures, subsidence, etc. are secondary effects, whereas shaking of structures, liquefaction, etc. by faulting are direct damage.

Secondary effects are indirectly associated with the occurrence of a catastrophic event (in this case, a earthquake).

Moreover, direct damage makes reference to eventual immediate effects that such catastrophic events may have.
