VIVAnews --two earthquakes shook the region of South-East of Spain, May 11, 2011. The first earthquake of 4.5 on the Richter scale took place in 5. 16.05 am local time. Nearly two hours later the earthquake scale 5.3 SR turn to shake things up.

Although his scale is small, this resulted in the death of two lindu and injury. At least 10 people confirmed killed in the disaster unexpectedly.

Rescue teams were still looking for possible other victims are trapped in the rubble. This is a major earthquake in Spain with the death toll in more than 50 years. Earlier, in 1956, the earthquake in Granada, Spain, killing 12 and injuring 70 others.

Lindu is also made of stone and brick building collapsed. Spain scored a video on television showed pictures of the Tower Church pieces and bricks hit the car in the streets.

How can the earthquake as it brings disaster? According to the experts the u.s. Geology Geophysics Agency (USGS), John Bellini, earthquake shook Spain took place along the fault line which has not been identified. The fault lies in the shallow breaks out, with a depth of 1 km.

"The earthquake near the ground would create damage, regardless of the type of error that," he added, such as loaded OurAmazingPlanet.

While the size of the earthquake, you may receive an explanation for why that may be in such damages, be seen in the quality of the buildings in the area.

Bellini said, earthquakes with the power of 6.5 SR in Tokyo--the city that had a strict code of conduct earthquake and the building opposite the designed shock-resistant will result in damage to the small-.  In locations such as Spain where many buildings are old, however, there is no willingness to face lindu, else happens.  "Construction of the building contribute to the potential devastation."

The coastal areas of Spain where the earthquake rocked the does have a history of earthquakes, are already often benign. Since 1976, the USGS recorded more than half a dozen magnitude 5 SR upwards.

"It's not tegolong active, but ever earthquake rocked several times, so this is actually not something surprising," added Bellini. (LiveScience) (eh)
