Right at top of the epicenter, the greatest shaking felt. It also depend on the types of soil. If the soil is soft then the intensity is amplified and where the soil is hard the intensity is damped.
The focus of an earthquake is the point along a fault at which the first motion of an earthquake occurs.The epicenter of an earthquake is the point on Earth's surface directly above an earthquake's starting point, or focus.
It is then the surface of the earth shakes, caused by crust of the earth in continuous motion.
The energy waves form at the focus which is the location within Earth along a fault at which the first motion of an earthquake occurs
The maximum ground motion of a magnitude 5 earthquake is 100 times larger than a magnitude 3 earthquake.
the motion is called seismogram

Surface waves (e.g. Rayleigh waves, Love waves) that produce vertical motion of the ground surface produce the most damage during an earthquake.
Surface waves from an earthquake shake the ground back and forth and up and down. So basically in a circular motion. This wave is the most dangerous wave released during and earthquake and it comes after the p and s waves. The Surface wave is the last wave that comes after the other 2. So yea' these surface waves move in a circular motion

Seismograph.
The epicenter, a point on the earth's surface directly over the focus, is where the first motion of an earthquake will be felt.The first motion of an earthquake is created at the focus, the point deep underground where the first break in the fault line occurs.
It is then the surface of the earth shakes, caused by crust of the earth in continuous motion.

An earthquake is a force craking in the air.
