Autor U. S. Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Earthquakes, especially major ones, are dangerous, inevitable, and a fact of life in some parts of the United States. Sooner or later another "big one" will occur. Earthquakes: Occur without warning; Can be deadly and extremely destructive; Can occur at any time. As a current or potential owner of a home, you should be very concerned about the potential danger to not only yourselves and your loved ones, but also to your property. The major threats posed by earthquakes are bodily injuries and property damage, which can be considerable and even catastrophic. Most of the property damage caused by earthquakes ends up being handled and paid for by the homeowner. In a 2000 study titled HAZUS 99: Average Annual Earthquake Losses for the United States, FEMA estimated U.S. losses from earthquakes at $4.4 billion per year. Large earthquakes in or near major urban centers will disrupt the local economy and can disrupt the economy of an entire state. However, proper earthquake preparation of your home can: Save lives; Reduce injuries; Reduce property damage. As a homeowner, you can significantly reduce damage to your home by fixing a number of known and common weaknesses. This booklet is a good start to begin strengthening your home against earthquake damage. It describes: Common weaknesses that can result in your home being damaged by earthquakes, and Steps you can take to correct these weaknesses. There are no guarantees of safety during earthquakes, but properly constructed and strengthened homes are far less likely to collapse or be damaged during earthquakes. FEMA advises you to act on the suggestions outlined in this booklet and make yourself, your family, and your home safer.
