WHAT TO DO DURING AN EARTHQUAKE bandiera-italiana.gif (9972 byte)

Keep calm. Stay where you are. If you are indoors protect yourself under a table or a bed (far from furniture, objects and glasses that by falling down could hurt you) or go near the most solid parts of the building: the bearing walls, the architraves, the walls corner, the doors shaft.

If you are outdoors, stay there but keep away from overhead wires or every objects that could fall down (for example parapets and cornices).

Don’t light candles, matches or other kinds of fires.

If you are in a car, stop and stay inside until the shock is over.

AT SCHOOL:

  • Protect yourself under a desk, turn your back on windows and keep away from them.

AT WORK:

  • Protect yourself under a writing desk or a strong piece of furniture or lean against a bearing wall.
  • Evacuate the building if you are told to do that.
  • Use the stairs rather than a lift.
