The document provides information about earthquakes including what causes them, interesting facts, key terms, safety tips, and how to conduct an earthquake drill. It discusses the stages of planning and conducting an earthquake drill, including forming a disaster management committee, developing an evacuation plan with mapped routes, conducting an orientation, and carrying out the actual drill with phases like an alarm, response, evacuation, and evaluation. The goal is to ensure safety and prepare building occupants through practice.

9. Magnitude & Intensity Magnitude is a measured value of the earthquake size. The Magnitude is the same no matter where you are, or how strong or weak the shaking was in various location Intensity is a measure of the shaking created b the earthquake, and this value does vary with location

11. How to Conduct an Earthquake Drill ?

12. Why do we need to Conduct an Earthquake Drill ? Earthquake is a natural phenomenon and cannot be prevented. It can strike quickly without warning. Earthquake can damage lives and properties. No available technology that give an accurate earthquake prediction. TO MITIGATE EARTHQUAKE DISASTER .

33. STAGE 3 Orientation Prior to the Conduct of an Earthquake Drill

38. STAGE 4 Actual Conduct of an Earthquake Drill

47. Phase 4. ASSEMBLY At the designated evacuation area, the ‘evacuees’ must be grouped together .

48. Phase 5. HEAD COUNT Team leaders (Teachers) should check and make sure all ‘evacuees’ are accounted for.

49. Phase 6. EVALUATION An evaluation of the drill must be conducted to identify problems encountered during the drill and how this can be corrected in future earthquake drills.
