What should you do if you encounter an earthquake in Jiuzhaigou? The self-help manual is worth having.

Don't panic when the earthquake comes. There have been serious stampedes before. I used to watch the movie Tangshan Earthquake. There is a good saying. You don't have to run for a small earthquake, and you can't run for a big earthquake. The so-called earthquake self-rescue is a relative earthquake, and that kind of low-byte crack can only be blessed by ancestors. In this issue of National Culture, I will tell you the self-help manual.

If you are in the bedroom,

Never get under the machine: after the earthquake, the collapse of the house sometimes forms a triangular space indoors, which is a relatively safe place for people to live. It can be called earthquake-proof space, including small rooms under the edge of the bed, under solid furniture, at the root of the interior wall and in the corner. People used to think it was safest to get under the bed, but hiding under the bed was not the best hiding place.

Avoid hanging objects overhead: Choose a place where there is no hanging object and no power plug nearby, so as to prevent hanging objects from falling and the power cord from catching fire and causing secondary disasters.

Never enter the wardrobe: during the Tangshan earthquake, someone got into the closet and hid. When the rescue team found it a few days later, the person was in good condition, but in the end he choked to death.

Open the door: the hiding place is near the door. It is best to open the door. You can lean against the door frame and hold your head. As soon as the earthquake is over, you should be ready to act at any time and prepare a way to escape.

B, if you are in the living room.

Imagine the living room as a transfer area: after the emergence of a spacious and bright new living room, its functions are also changing and it has become an area for daily reception and leisure. The living room is a place extending in all directions and there is no deposit. In an earthquake, the living room should be regarded as a safe transfer area.

The escape device should be placed in a conspicuous place in the living room: The traditional habit of China people is to lock the escape device deep in the cabinet, but once it is used, it doesn't work. Escape equipment should be placed in a conspicuous place in the living room so that everyone in each room can pick it up and run.

If you are in the bathroom,

It's safest here: if you happen to be in the bathroom when the earthquake happens, congratulations, your chances of survival are much greater. During an earthquake, the smaller the room, the safer it is, and the larger the room, the easier it is to collapse. The walls of the bathroom are mostly load-bearing walls, and there are fewer falling objects on the roof, which is relatively safe.

The water source is very important: guarding the water source is a big advantage of the bathroom. In the Tangshan earthquake, some people depended on water for a long time.

People should not get together: everyone knows that the bathroom is the safest, but when the earthquake happens, the whole family should not hide in the bathroom together. Scattered hiding can increase the chances of survival. Because I am not sure where is the safest place in the earthquake, but it is relatively safe. The scattered hiding of people means that there are always people outside just in case, and rescue can be launched immediately after the earthquake.

D. If you are in a tall building.

Windows far away from high-rise buildings: during the earthquake, the walls of high-rise buildings facing the road are very unstable, so the windows of high-rise buildings should be far away. Nowadays, buildings are generally frame structures, and bricks play the role of wind and rain, but they are not load-bearing. In an earthquake, the frame is often there and the wall is gone. If people hide under the window, they are easily thrown out.

Never take the elevator: never use the elevator when an earthquake occurs. Once the power is cut off, if you can't get up or down, you will get stuck in it and can't get out. In case there is an earthquake when you take the elevator, you can press all the buttons on each floor of the operation panel. Once stopped, leave the elevator quickly and take refuge after confirming safety.

Where to run depends: do you have to run down after the earthquake? The answer is not necessarily. Especially for residents living on high floors, the principle of where to run should be near-near the ground, near the roof and near the roof. In short, "seeing the sky and seeing the earth" can be in contact with the outside world, which is relatively safe.

Confirm the escape route or fire escape route: when you escape, you must take the escape route. The tall building itself is cupping. At present, when designing high-rise buildings, some of them have designed special fire exits, which are used to dredge the fire, so we must distinguish them clearly.

The use of escape ropes is grouped: some families have escape equipment, such as downhill ropes, which must be used in the quiet period after an earthquake. I remind you that people who use the downhill rope must be trained, and they need the support of their feet during the downhill process, otherwise it is no different from jumping off a building, except that there is an extra rope.

E, if you are in a low-rise building.

Brick-concrete structures are more prone to collapse: under the same conditions, brick masonry, the main load-bearing material of brick-concrete structures, is fragile and has poor seismic performance, which is slightly better than that of frame structures. After the earthquake, people living in old brick-concrete buildings should take the initiative to find opportunities and evacuate quickly.

Be sure to escape in order: during the rescue of Wenchuan earthquake in 2008, it was found that the victims in some places were near the aisle, stairs or home. This shows that people fled during the earthquake, but were buried by collapsed houses before they could reach safety. During the earthquake, the group must escape in an orderly way, and the people in front leave time for the people behind.

Don't jump off a building on the lower floor: If you live on the first or second floor, don't choose to jump off a building to escape. Jumping off a building will not only cause fractures, but also be injured by heavy objects falling from a height.
