The Earthquake Group for Gwyn Jones' Science in Context Catastrophes Class, Summer 2005

Group Members: Rjay Barsh, Erica McGillivray, Cassie Lucarelli, Charlotte Black, Mike Licata

For our group project, we studied the interior effects of earthquake damage and what people can do to protect themselves from being harmed during an earthquake. We put our knowledge to use by retrofitting two daycare centers in order to make them earthquake safe. The following web site explains our project and some simple preventative techniques.
