This activity is about evaluating the earthquake safety of houses in the Philippines, especially those made of Concrete Hollow Blocks (CHB). 1. Who built or designed my house?If it was designed by a licensed civil engineer/architect, your house gets 1 point because it likely follows proper building codes.If only a mason, carpenter, or homeowner supervised without professional training, the score is 0, which means higher risk.2. How old is my house?Houses built 1992 onwards get 1 point since new building standards after that year considered earthquake safety.Houses built before 1992 score 0, as they may not follow updated safety rules.
