10. Wood-frame structures withstand earthquakes the best
Steel column-beam systems help prevent buildings from falling during earthquakes
Buildings built near water are vulnerable because of liquefaction
Liquefaction---sand or sediment liquefies during an earthquake which causes buildings to collapse

12. Drop to your hands and knees
Crawl beneath some form of shelter like a table and cover your head and neck with your hands
If there is no shelter, find a binder or tray and cover your head and neck
Hold on until shaking stops
Once it is safe, exit the building
