Value of Knowing Earthquake Hazards and Risk Reduction.
Storyboard Text
- Yes, Rob. Thank you! Good morning everyone here is some methods for us to let us know are some ways to prevent on reduce the risks of an earthquake.1. Effective recording and interpretation of ground motion. This assists in providing alerts and warnings especially to high-risk or vulnerable areas for preparation and emergency геѕроnѕе.
- Oh i should've known that.
- 2. Constructing seismic hazard maps. It serves as basis for disaster management information like locations for evacuation and evacuation 9routes. The anticipated intensity of ground shaking is represented by a number called the peak acceleration or the peak velocity.
- 3. Developing resistant structures. Resistant structures are able to withstand collapse by redistributingforces caused by seismic waves through shear walls. Developingengineered structural designs that are able to resist the forcesgenerated by seismic waves can be achieved either by following buildingcodes based on hazard maps or by appropriate methods of analysis.
- Oh hello Michael a news about knowing earthquake hazards and risk reduction.
- Hi Sarah what are you watching?
- Earthquake hazard is anything associated with an earthquake that may affect the normal activities of people. This includes surface faulting, ground shaking, landslide, liquefaction, tectonic deformation, tsunamis, and seiches.
- What is earthquake hazards.?
- Move away from windows, skylights, doors and things that could fall. Duck, cover and hold until the shaking stops. If you are outdoors, move quickly and safely into the open, away from electrical lines, trees and buildings.
- And that risk reduction you mention?
- Yeah come lets grab lunch.
- Oh I see better to know that incase earthquake happens. Thank You.
- You're welcome lets eat.
- Thank you for inviting me this looks good.
