   • The intensity of an earthquake is measured by Modified Mercalli (MM) scale. This scale was developed by an Italian seismologist Mercalli in 1902 and modified by Wood and Newman in 1931. It expresses the intensity of the effects of earthquakes on people, structures and earth’s surface in values from I to XII. (Table 8.2).

   What is the intensity or destructive power of an earthquake?

   • The intensity or destructive power of an earthquake is an evaluation of the severity of ground motion at a given location. It is measured in relation to the effects of the earthquake on human life. Generally destruction is described in terms of damage caused to buildings, dams, bridges and other structures.
