A magnitude 8 earthquake can release as much energy as 6 million tns of TNT. It can cause severe damage to structures and can very fatal.
area with older brick structures
the magnitude is 111.2 the length is 24 days and the damage there was no damage
magnitudea measure of the amount of the energy released by earthquake . earthquake is measure through Ricthter scale that measure the magnitude of seismic waves that it has
Richter scale is a scale which shows the magnitude of a earthquake. magnitude below than 4.0 does not cause much damage , magnitude below 2.0 ussually are not felt, magnitude over 5.0 cause damage, 6.0 is considered strong, and 7.0 is a major earthquake.

Above 8-9 magnitude can cause severe earthquake....

A magnitude 6.0 earthquake has the potential to cause damage, depending on various factors such as the depth, distance from populated areas, and the type of infrastructure in the affected region. Generally, it can result in moderate to significant damage to buildings and structures, particularly if they are not built to withstand seismic activity. The impacts can range from cracked walls and broken windows to partial collapses and damage to bridges and roads.
A magnitude 5 earthquake may cause slight damage to well designed buildings and major damage or destruction of poorly constructed buildings.

To estimate the magnitude or amount of damage it could cause to infrastructure and environment.
A small earthquake is anything not felt or is felt but does not do any damage to property. An earthquake of magnitude 2.5 or less is usually not felt, but can be recorded by seismograph. Earthquakes above magnitude 2.5 and under magnitude 5.4 are often felt but only cause minor damage.
The apparent magnitude of yesterday's earthquake was 5.0, as evidenced by the damage to buildings.
