FRANCE AND WORLD SEISMICITY
FRANCE SEISMICITY
An earthquake is the result of a sudden
release of energy in the Earth’s crust that
creates seismic waves. Though we
cannot prevent an earthquake from occuring,
measures can be taken to minimize
consequences. In order to reduce the number
of victims, buildings and other structures
must be designed or modified to improve
their resistance to earthquakes.
