In my talk, Home Preparedness in Earthquake Country, I give several examples from my own home of how I have braced furniture and taken other recommended precautions.  This page reviews the main categories of preparations described in the talk: “crucial,” “strongly recommended,” “recommended,” and “nice if possible.”  Click on the “next” and “previous” links at the bottom of the window to move through the photos and their descriptions.  (Back to main earthquake resources page)
