I used to work in earthquake research. I would like to share my experience with you.

I have also worked as a construction engineer and technician, so I will give you some advice on escape according to the structure of the building when the earthquake comes. For your reference.

Urban multi-storey buildings: refers to ordinary residential buildings, six or four floors. Brick and concrete structure house. This kind of house, which is a commonly used building structure in earlier years, has low production costs and does not require a lot of steel reinforcement. In recent years, the city has basically been banned by elevation buildings, because of the large area. This structure, in terms of shock resistance, the performance is not high. However, the advantage is that there are fewer floors, and within the range of 12 seconds of the earthquake escape time, personnel below three floors can respond to escape from the building. Other floors within 12 can not get out of the building, should have an understanding of the building structure, the wall of the toilet is not 24 centimeters thick, if you can choose to escape into the toilet. If it's 12 centimeters, it's recommended to escape to the corridor. Narrow space structure is more stable.

Elevation building: a building with 25 or 33 stories or more than 20 stories. This kind of building, because of the high floor, takes the whole building into a square stable structure. But I personally don't like this structure. It's square, but it's too high, because of the transverse and longitudinal waves of the earthquake. There's gonna be a lot of damage to the superstructure. This structure also has great limitations on escape. If after one earthquake, there are other secondary earthquakes. It is very difficult to escape the building when it is not convenient to use the elevator. Therefore, it is recommended to choose to move the solid table and chair to the shear wall corner. Take cover.

Rural brick house: This kind of house, most of them are one story. 1 In the white situation, not a sudden earthquake, the yard area is large enough to escape the house. 2 In the case of a sudden earthquake, the yard area is not spacious enough, and the collapse of the house will hurt yourself, it is recommended that you squat on the side of the fire in the countryside, where the triangle is formed, even if the house collapses, there is a safe space.

In the event of an earthquake with many aftershocks, it is important to protect your head when escaping from a building. It is recommended that you keep plenty of water and food at home. In the event of a life-threatening earthquake, food and water are more important than property.
