The best method for earthquake emergency protection is to "escape nearby during the earthquake and quickly evacuate to a safe place after the earthquake." The so-called avoidance is to make different countermeasures according to different situations according to local conditions. In addition, when encountering problems, you must remind yourself to stay calm, keep a clear and cool mind, and make correct judgments.
It usually only takes ten seconds from the occurrence of an earthquake to the collapse of a house. This requires us to make the right decision calmly and in an instant. People often become unstable when strong earthquakes strike. If you can't escape for a while, it's best to find a relatively safe place nearby to squat or lie down. At the same time, try to find a pillow, cushion, schoolbag, washbasin or thick book to protect your head and neck, and quickly evacuate to an open area outdoors after the earthquake.
1. How do people indoors (buildings and bungalows) avoid danger?
Indoor personnel should follow the following principles to avoid danger:
(1) First of all, keep a clear and calm mind, judge the vibration situation in time, and never jump off the building in panic. Extremely important.
(2) The correct way to avoid earthquakes is to take a lower position than the height of furniture (such as tables, beds, not cabinets that are easy to overturn), hide next to it, or move to a place with a higher load-bearing wall. If possible, open a small kitchen or toilet to take shelter for a while. Because the falling ceiling presses on the furniture, it will not directly hit the person, but may form a "living space" to increase the chance of survival; the kitchen and toilet have strong integration, especially the internal pipes that have been processed and have better support. , the seismic resistance coefficient is large.
(3) Pay attention to the following points in buildings with elevators:
Although the elevator is the fastest, it is the most dangerous and is a completely rejected option;
p>
Although cutting off the power supply to the elevator is a necessary measure for the property management, you must check to ensure that no one is in the elevator before making this decision;
People in the elevator should choose the nearest floor to evacuate the elevator, but if the elevator If you are stuck, don't panic, because panic will obviously not help, and asking for help may not necessarily get a response, so you should choose to rely on the corner wall of the elevator to protect your head.
Note:
The first choice for people indoors is not to escape from the corridor (this is the first choice in case of fire, gas and other flammable gas leaks). Stairs are often the weakest part of a building's earthquake resistance. ;
Stay away from exterior walls, doors and windows, and choose places such as kitchens and bathrooms that are small and difficult to collapse. The specific hiding location can be next to solid furniture or close to the wall;
It is highly recommended to take the risk for half a minute to cut off the power supply of electrical appliances. Circuit fire will cause fatal damage to earthquake hazard protection;
After learning the warning, you should carry it with you easily Arrange light and valuable items (such as passbooks, etc.) in advance;
Once again, we firmly reject the escape method of jumping from upstairs, even from the second floor!
In short, during an earthquake, you can assess the situation according to the building layout and indoor conditions, find safe spaces and passages to avoid, and reduce casualties.
2. How should school personnel avoid danger?
Principles that school personnel should follow when avoiding danger:
(1) In schools, what is most needed during an earthquake is the calmness and decisiveness of school leaders and teachers, because you are always students compass.
(2) Students in the teaching building can go to rooms with small bays and pipe support. In a relatively strong and safe house, you can also hide under desks or beside the podium. Students must not be allowed to run around or jump off buildings. Escape to an open area is not the first choice.
(3) Teachers in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens should pay special attention to the fact that the first instruction should be decisive and clear. Young students will obviously obey the teacher's first instruction unconditionally at this time. It is generally recommended that schools organize students to conduct general disaster prevention training in normal times.
(4) In areas with medium and long-term earthquake forecasts, it is necessary to combine teaching activities to teach students about earthquakes and earthquake prevention and avoidance knowledge. Before the earthquake, routes and venues for student transfer and evacuation should be arranged, and after the earthquake, students should be calmly directed to evacuate in an orderly manner.
Note:
Students can use schoolbags and other soft objects around them to protect their heads. Escape to an open area is not the first choice. On the contrary, for special indoor places such as schools with high concentration, collective Escape can easily lead to trampling and panic;
Male students on the second floor are likely to choose to jump off the building. Not only is this not allowed, but special personnel must be assigned to patrol and prevent it. This is because students tend to follow the crowd when they are in panic, and in fact the extent of the disaster is completely unknown.
3. How should you avoid shock when walking on the street when an earthquake occurs?
When an earthquake occurs, glass fragments from high-rise buildings, concrete fragments from the outside of the building, advertising signs, neon light stands, etc. may fall and injure people. Therefore, when walking on the street, it is best to put the bag or soft object next to you on your head. If you have no items, you can also use your hands to protect your head. Be as prepared for self-defense as possible, and calmly and quickly leave the telephone poles and walls. , ran to a relatively open area to hide.
Note:
Be sure to protect your head with soft objects, even with your hands;
Be calm and don’t run around with the crowd, but Make your own judgment (in unfamiliar cities, you have to follow the crowd, after all, most of the crowds are locals, but you have to ask in time whether they are running to an open area).
4. How should driving vehicles respond when an earthquake occurs?
(1) Drivers should slow down as soon as possible and brake gradually; secondly, they should drive immediately away from dangerous areas such as overpasses, under high buildings, and on the edge of cliffs.
(2) Passengers (especially on trains) should firmly hold handles, pillars or seats, etc., and be careful to prevent luggage from falling from the rack and injuring anyone. People facing the direction of traffic should lean their arms on the seat cushion in front of them to protect their faces, lean into the aisle, and protect their heads with both hands; people whose backs are facing the direction of traffic should protect the back of their heads with both hands and raise their knees. Protect your abdomen, tighten your body, and take a defensive posture.
(3) Even if you encounter an earthquake while driving, you should get out of the car and avoid it quickly. If you are in a parking lot when a strong earthquake occurs, be sure not to stay in your car as the ceiling may collapse and crush your car, causing injury. You should hide between two vehicles or next to the vehicle in a lying position lower than the height of the vehicle. This way, falling heavy objects can easily hit the vehicle and avoid directly hitting the person. This may create a "living space" and increase the chance of survival.
Note:
Do not park at will, because every vehicle forms an associated body of the entire traffic lifeline. Especially parking in the above-mentioned dangerous areas will cause unpredictable consequences;
If you are riding a bicycle, you should abandon the vehicle and take the above-mentioned measures for pedestrians. If you are riding a motorcycle or electric vehicle, whether you should abandon your vehicle should depend on the traffic flow on the road.
5. How to respond when an earthquake occurs in a store?
Remain calm when experiencing an earthquake in a department store. Due to the panic of people and the whereabouts of goods, the evacuation passages may be blocked. At this time, you should hide next to nearby large pillars and large merchandise (avoiding product display cabinets), or seek refuge in a passage without obstacles, and then squat down and wait for the earthquake to subside.
If it is located upstairs, in principle it is better to move to the ground floor. However, stairs are often the weakest part of a building against earthquakes, so it is necessary to identify the right time to escape. Waiters should organize people to take shelter nearby and evacuate safely after the earthquake.
6. How to avoid danger in exhibition halls, subways, stadiums, theaters and other public places?
(1) Hide under strong pillars or corners and avoid dangerous objects such as glass showcases, advertising light boxes, tall shelves, large chandeliers, etc. Sports venues and movie theaters should be protected under rows of chairs. Fleeing in a panic can easily lead to trampling.
(2) After the earthquake, follow the instructions of the staff and evacuate in an orderly manner.
(3) Try to avoid crowds of people in open areas. The family should gather together and take good care of the elderly and children to avoid getting lost.
Note:
During an earthquake, many things we take for granted may become deadly "killers" and we must be extremely vigilant. Stay away from high-rise buildings, chimneys, tall old trees, etc., especially buildings with glass curtain walls;
Avoid dangerous objects at high places such as transformers, telephone poles, street lights, high-voltage lines, billboards, etc.;< /p>
Avoid dangerous objects that are prone to collapse, such as dangerous buildings, dangerous walls, narrow alleys, houses with high facades and parapets, and building materials piled high.
