Can someone give me a few more details about what was damaged in the famous SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE of 1906?

I want to find a few more details about what was damaged in the San francisco earthquake of 1906. And also... was there anything else going on during the earthquake? Abduction? Stealing? I want to find as MUCH information about the earthquake as possible. I know the quake began at precisely almost 5:12am. But give as much information as possible, I need everything there is to know about the San francisco earthquake of 1906. Are there any other explanations of why the ground broke open for over 270 miles along the San Andreas rift [ I doubt it... but someone out there knows... ] ?
Answer: Remember it was the FIRE that destroyed so much of the city. Also in the Atomic bombs, the real destruction was the fire that swept over the ruined buildings that killed many many folks. Dresden didn't suffer from broken building as much as a firestorm that swept the town after Allied bombs in WWII. Earthquake will ruin buildings, but nothing beats a city-wide fire for sheer destruction.

Who was the interim fire chief during the 1906 SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE?

I am doing a research paper on the San francisco earthquake of 1906, and I was wondering who the alternate fire chief was. I know that the original one, Dennis T. Sullivan, was killed during the initial quake, but nowhere does it say who filled in for him. Can you help me out?
Answer: The sheriff was appointed as interim fire chief. Here is a link. Scroll down to find him. http://www.sfsheriff.com/sheriffs.htm

If the LA earthquake had a magnitude of 6.5 on the Richter scale and the magnitude of the San Francisco earthq?

If the LA earthquake had a magnitude of 6.5 on the Richter scale and the magnitude of the San francisco earthquake had a magnitude 35 times as intense as the LA earthquake, what is the magnitude of the San francisco earthquake?
Answer: It's 6.5 + log(35) which equals 8. Logarithm of 35 is about 1.5. It is the exponent of 10 which will yield 35. Or 10^1.5 = 35 (roughly)

Life after the 1906 SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE?

I have this project for english and I need to find out about life (for the San-franciscians) after the earthquake. I also need to find out about what happened to chinatown (which is in san francisco). Ex. my great-great aunt was in the earthquake and there was barely any food blah blah blah. Also, If you could tell me about after the Taiwan earthquake, that would be great to, thanx!
Answer: My great grandmother was pregnant with her first child during the earthquake. They were not in Chinatown, but in Hayes Valley. They evacuated to Golden Gate Park but ended up moving across the Bay to Berkeley for about a year. My grandfather went almost all his life thinking he was born in San Francisco and found out very late he was actually born in Berkeley. I think there are lots of internet sources. But because the Chinese in San Francisco at that time were mostly male, and mostly not strong English speakers, I don't know if you will find much written about their experience. I was in SF during the 1989 earthquake but I have no idea what the Taiwan earthquake was.

What if SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE of 1906 never happened?

I need couple sentences on this question from history. If San francisco earthquake never happened....
Answer: My grandparents would not have had to go live with a relative (grandmother's sister) in Oakland, and my father would not as a result have told my mother that if she ever saw this relative coming down their street, she was to either shoot her or call the police. Seriously, what effect? SF would not have been mostly burned down and needed to be rebuilt. I suppose this led to greater interest in earthquakes and geology in the USA, and perhaps improved building codes in California.

How did the 1906 SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE affect people globally?

how did it affect the people who were not living in San Francisco?
Answer: It had no direct physical affect on any one not living within range to feel the earthquake. It could certainly have an emotional effect for people with family and friends in the city, and financial effects because of the destruction and loss of assets and investments. Were you affected by the earthquake in New Zealand, or the ones in Chile?

The 1906 SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE had a magnitude of 8.3 on the Richter scale. At the same time in South Ameri?

The 1906 San francisco earthquake had a magnitude of 8.3 on the Richter scale. At the same time in South America, there was an earthquake with magnitude 4.1 that caused only minor damage. How many times more intense was the San francisco earthquake than the South American one? Be sure to provide examples in your answers and to add correct and relevant information.
Answer: The Richter scale is a logarithmic scale. That is, the intensity of an earthquake is proportional to 10^R where R is the Richter scale magnitude of the earthquake. Comparing the San francisco earthquake with the South American one, the intensities were in the ratio: 10^8.3 / 10^4.1 = 10^(8.3-4.1) = 10^4.2 = 15849 = approx. 16000 to two significant figures. Answer: the San francisco earthquake was about 16000 times more intense than the South American one.

How long did it take to clean up after the 1906 SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE?

I was just looking up natural disasters and was looking at one of the worlds most well known disaster of the 1906 earthquake that rock san francisco that claimed 3,000 lives. I was just wondering how long did it take for the city too clean up and shape like it has today?
Answer: We know it as the "earthquake and fire," since it was the fire that destroyed the city, not the quake itself. It was pretty much rebuilt by 1915, when the Pacific Exposition was held. Fun fact: the site of the Exposition was built on landfill from the rubble that was cleaned up; and that's the same area where the houses collapsed in the 1989 earthquake, when the landfill liquefacted.

SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE Today Felt in Oakland, Berkeley

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) - A San francisco earthquake today was felt in Oakland, Berkeley, and the Bay area. The San francisco earthquake struck moments ago.

how could the damaged to the SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE be minimised?

how could damage from the San francisco earthquake be minimised
Answer: We've learned a lot about earthquakes since 1906, and this has helped mitigate earthquake damage in at least three ways. First, by mapping fault zones and areas prone to heavy shaking, we can make decisions not to build anything in areas where structures could be destroyed by direct fault motion or ground failure (liquefaction, etc.). Second, knowledge of how earthquake waves affect buildings allows us to design structures to better withstand earthquakes. Third, increased public awareness of earthquakes and what to do when they strike can allow people to protect themselves during an earthquake as well as avoid dangerous activities after the quake. (Most of the damage in San Francisco was caused by the fires that broke out after the quake, some of which were started by people cooking in houses with damaged chimneys or flues.)
