If you are planning to build a house in the near future and the location you are in earthquake prone areas, careful planning is needed to anticipate when the earthquake came. Prepare and plan housing conditions to be able to support the safety of your soul and your family during an earthquake.
Look at the situation of every room in your house. Estimate the potential risks posed to minimize the damage and the incidence of casualties caused by the earthquake. Imagine the shock if there any items that could fall, break or endanger yourself and your family. Here are some considerations to minimize the risk of earthquakes in your home.
Kitchen. Potential risks may exist in most of your kitchen. Note the items in the kitchen. Closet or kitchen set should be attached firmly to the wall with nails, screws or elbow. Make sure all the cabinet can be locked so that when the quake comes there are no items in the outgoing cabinet, and overwrite the scattered residents. Especially note the glassware to be placed in a locked cabinet.
Bedroom. We may spend more time in this room. Note the mirror, painting or other decoration to be hung on the wall remains strongly bound. If a bed and some furniture has wheels should make sure the wheels are locked. High cabinets should be firmly fastened to the wall as well.
Another room is pretty much the same security. It should be put on the home interior and furniture tampered glass (tempered glass) is safe if broken. But the price of this type of glass is more expensive than regular glass, so furniture makers rarely use it.
