  4. An Earthquake • One of the most frightening and destructive phenomena of nature is a severe earthquake. • Earthquakes strike suddenly and violently at any time. If an earthquake occurs in a populated area, it may cause deaths, injuries and extensive property damage. • Although there are no guarantees of safety during an earthquake, identifying potential hazards ahead of time and advance planning can save lives and significantly reduce injuries and property damage.

  5. Fore-shock:The first shock of a whole earthquake. • Main-shock: The biggest shock of a whole • earthquake. • After-shock: An earthquake of similar or • lesser intensity that follows the main • earthquake.

  6. Before earthquake Make a safety map of our school or community, and research its evacuation route. 1. Find the floor plan of your school. 2. Mark specific places like Dangerous, Safe, Open area blocks. 3. Paint the map.

  7. Safety Bag • Flashlight and extra batteries. • Whistle. • First aid kit and medicine. • Emergency food (Chocolate) and water. • Raincoat. • ID card. We have two teams to prepare those things.

  8. BeforeEarthquake Check for Hazards in the Home • Fasten shelves and fixtures securely to walls. • Place large or heavy objects on lower shelves. • Hang heavy items such as pictures and mirrors away from anywhere people sit. • Repair any deep cracks in ceilings or foundations.

  9. Identify Safe Places Indoors and Outdoors • Next to sturdy furniture. • Against an inside wall. • Away from where glass could shatter around windows, mirrors, pictures, or where heavy things could fall over. • In the outdoors, stay away from buildings, trees, overpasses, or elevated expressways.

  10. !!! Use helmet or something soft to protect your head. • Don’t hide under the table, maybe it’ll broke When something in the ceiling fell down. • Turn off the light and gas, or they’ll explode. • If you can, run to the open places. • Don’t hide beside walls or glasses, maybe it’ll broke and hurt you. :

  11. "Drop, Cover, and Hold On" DROP to the ground; take COVER by getting next to a sturdy table; and HOLD ON until the shaking stops. “Take cover under a sturdy desk" is mistaken advice. Where you want to be is next to the sturdy desk or between two of them.

  12. Earthquake is coming !!! Having a class: Squat next to the table and take a soft thing to protect your head. Sleeping: Stay next to the bed and take a pillow to protect your head. In a moving vehicle: Stop as quickly as safety permits and stay in the vehicle. Avoid stopping near or under buildings, trees, overpasses, and utility wires.

  13. After the Earthquake 1. Listen to a battery-operated radio. 2. Listen for the latest emergency information. 3. Expect aftershocks. These secondary shockwaves are usually less violent than the main quake but can be strong enough to do additional damage to weakened structures and can occur in the first hours, days, weeks, or even months after the quake. 4. Return home only when authorities say it is safe and requested by police, fire, or relief organizations .

  14. Help injured or trapped persons After the shock, check if you are hurt from the dropped things. Use the medicines in the safety bag to stop bleeding. Or you can call the ambulance for help. Remember to help your neighbors, the elderly, and people with disabilities. Give first aid where appropriate but don’t move them except he has instantly dangerous. Call for help. Don’t Cry !

  15. If trapped under debris • Do not light a match. • Do not move about or kick up dust. • Cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. • Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can locate you. Use a whistle if one is available. • Shout only as a last resort. Shouting can cause you to inhale dangerous amounts of dust.

  16. Thank you for your attention The End
