A person lives in a new structure that

complies with modern building codes with

regard to earthquake safety. What is the best

place for this person to take cover during an

earthquake?

A. Near a window

B. Under a table

C. In a doorway

D. In a basement

B. Under a table

Explanation:

Building codes are set of standardized regulations with design, alteration and maintaining the safety standards given by (FEMA) feral emergency management authority as the (IBC) international building code for all new types of buildings. For a person, the safest place to be at the time of an earthquake is under a table to protect oneself from any falling object from above and so as to limit or avoid the risks of earthquakes. This done as the old building doesn't come with retrofitting and lacks the design and technology for the seismic event.
