An earthquake is a sudden shaking of the earth’s surface caused by the release of energy due to movements along faults or tectonic plate boundaries. The primary hazard associated with an earthquake is ground shaking, which can vary in intensity depending on the magnitude, depth of focus, and distance from the epicenter. Severe ground shaking leads to structural collapse of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure, especially in areas with poor construction practices. Surface rupture is another significant hazard, occurring when the fault line breaks through the ground surface,
