甘肃省张掖地区中强地震的对策

MODERATE-STRONG EARTHQUAKE COUNTERMEASURES OF THE ZHANGYE PREFECTURE OF GANSU PUOVINCE,CHINA

甘肃省张掖地区位于祁连山地震带中段，是国家地震局划定的地震重点监视防御区之一。由于该防御区在９０年代中期仍有发生６—７级强震的可能，因此，该地区的各级政府采取了一系列抗震防灾措施。本文介绍了该地区中强地震的对策，包括：不断加强短临监测预报能力；制定并不断完善、落实地震应急预案；宣传普及防震减灾知识；加强抗震设防以提高建筑物的抗震性能。

The Zhangye Prefecture of Gansu Province,which lies on the central segment of the Qilian-shan seismic belt,is one of the focal monitoring and preparedness areas designated by the StateSeismological Bureau of China. As a strong earthquake with M 6-7is still likely to occur in thisarea in the mid 1990’s,the prefecture governments at different levels have taken a series of earth-quake resistance and disaster preparedness measures.In this paper,the authors give a descriptionof moderate-strong earthquake countermeasures of the prefecture,including:continuously increa- sing the ability in short-term and impending earthquake monitoring and prediction;drawing up,continuously perfecting and implementing earthquake emergency plans;popularizing the know-ledge of earthquake resistance and disaster preparedness;strengthening earthquake resistance pro-tection to improve earthquake resistance capabilities of buildings.
