∙ 14y agoIn designing buildings, you deal with earthquakes by isolating them form the ground, or strengthening them, or making them more elastic, or making them lighter.
In preparing an internal space for an earthquake, you attach heavy items such as shelves and large objects in a room to the walls or floor so they will not crush people by moving.
In preparing yourself for survival after an earthquake, you store non-perishable food, water, a torch and batteries, warm clothing and essential toletries such as medications, toilet paper and soap, and a first aid gear in a kit. There should be enough for at least three days of survival, because the emergency services will be very busy and also may not be able to get to you.
In experiencing an earthquake, you deal with it by immediately moving to the very nearest strong sheltering structure, such as a door frame or a small room, or by staying in a vehicle until the quake subsides.
