This document provides lesson objectives, keywords, and content about earthquakes and how they are measured. The key points are:
- The lesson will teach students how seismic waves travel and cause damage, and how to evaluate and explain earthquake damage.
- Earthquakes are measured using the Richter scale from 1-10 to indicate magnitude. Each whole number increase means the earthquake is 10 times stronger.
- More damage occurs closer to the epicenter where the seismic waves are strongest. The Richter scale, seismographs, and other keywords are defined and linked to understanding earthquakes.
Earthquakes are the shaking, rolling or sudden shock of the earth’s surface. They are the Earth's natural means of releasing stress. Earthquakes can be felt over large areas.
Earthquakes cannot be predicted, although scientists are working on it.
Seismic waves are the waves of energy caused by the sudden breaking of rock within the earth or an explosion.
Response of material to the arrival of energy fronts released by rupture.
Energy that travels through the earth and is recorded on seismographs.

what is earthquake, how to measure Earthquake, how are earthquakes measured and detected, different methods of measuring earthquake, different scales of measuring earthquake
A natural vibration of the ground or the earth crust produced by forces is called earthquake or seismic forces.
An earthquake is what happens when two blocks of the earth suddenly slip past one another.
Focus and Epicenter:
The focus of an earthquake is the point where the rocks start to fracture. It is the origin of the earthquake.
The epicenter is the point on land directly above the focus.

Design and Analysis of a Multistory Reinforced Concrete Frame in Different Se...ijtsrd
This study work focuses on the analysis of a structural system to determine the deformations and comparison of steel quantity of seismic zones. In this study, we have taken G 12 multi storied RC moment resisting framed structure building with the shear wall by analyzing the structure for gravity load, wind load and seismic loads for different cities. By Selecting four different cities on the basis of seismic zones zone II, zone III, zone IV, zone V and also considering that the basic wind speed. We have mainly focus on the structural system to determine the deformations and also forces induced by applied loads or ground excitation is an essential step in the design of a structure to resist earthquake. The analysis and design for all the cities are carried out using STAAD Pro' and STAAD Foundation' software which are industry standard software the world over. The wind resistant design is carried out as per IS 875 Part 3 1987 and the earthquake resistant design is carried out as per IS 1893 Part 1 2002. Analysis and design of beams, columns and shear wall have been done in STAAD Pro and the foundation is done in STAAD Foundation. We have also checked the design of some beams, columns, and footings manually and find correct. Design of RCC slabs is carried out manually for which an excel sheet is developed for working out moment coefficients for different edge conditions as per IS code. In this study work, we design and analyze a reinforced concrete frame structure in various seismic zones and we observing the variation in the behavior of the structure in various loading conditions.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Knowledge:
All will understand how
earthquakes are
measured.
Most will explain how
seismic waves travel and
the damage they can
cause.
Skills:
All will evaluate where
earthquake damage is
greatest and explain why
Some will research how
the damage from
earthquakes can be
managed
4. Let’s remind ourselves how
earthquakes happen:

Richter
Scale
The largest earthquake
ever recorded was in
Chile. It measured 9.5
on the Richter Scale.
The Richter Scale
This measures the magnitude
of a tremor (how powerful it
is) using an instrument called a
seismograph.
The Richter Scale is measured
on a scale from 1 to 10. It is a
logarithmic scale which means
that a size ‘6’ on the Richter
Scale is 10 times more
powerful than a size ’5’ and
100 times more powerful than
a size ‘4’.
9. The Richter Scale:
0 - 1.9
Can be detected only by
a Seismograph
2 - 2.9
Hanging objects
(lampshade) may swing
3 - 3.9
Comparable to the
vibrations of a passing
lorry
4 - 4.9
May break windows or
cause small objects in
your home to fall
5 - 5.9
Furniture moves, chunks
of plaster may fall from
the walls
6 - 6.9
Damage is caused to well
built structures and
severe damage to poorly
built structures
7 - 7.9
Buildings are displaced
from foundations and
there are visible cracks in
the earth
8 - 8.9
Bridges are destroyed
and few structures are
left standing
9 and over
Near total destruction
and seismic waves are
visible to the naked eye
(don’t worry, this rarely
happens!)
10. Where on the scale is it and explain your choice:
1. 2.
3. 4.
12. A. B.
1. Will the vibrations be greater at A, or B? Why?
2. Will the damage be greater at A or at B? Why?
3. An earthquake can occur at any time of day. When might an earthquake do more
harm? At 5am OR b) at 10.30am Explain your answer.
