Over fifty folks came in out of the rain last night to hear Ken Napior (of Foster City CERT) give a very informative presentation, training us on CERT Damage Assessment guidelines. This was a very good session that taught us some standardized guidelines to use during inspection and assessment of structures. For the attendees that didn’t get any handouts, here they are: handout1 & handout2. Handout2 includes a sheet describing the Mercalli Earthquake Scale which give a more meaningful indicator of damage than the Richter Scale we are all used to reading about.
