Tectonic Earthquakes

Tectonic earthquakes are caused by tectonic plates shifting plates. This earthquake occurred due to the amount of force generated due to the pressure between the plates of rock in the Earth's belly. This earthquake was the most frequent type of earthquake is felt, especially in Indonesia.

Strong tectonic earthquakes often occur around the boundary of tectonic plates. The tectonic plates are always moving and push each other to each other. The movement of tectonic plates caused the accumulation of energy slowly. Later tectonic earthquake occurred due to the release of energy that has been long buried. Tectonic earthquakes are usually much more powerful than the volcanic earthquake tremors, the building vibrations most destructive earthquakes caused by tectonic earthquake. Force generated by the pressure between the rock known as tectonic disability. Theory of tectonic plates (plate tectonics) explains that the earth consists of several layers of rock, most of the areas of the crust layer will drift and float in layers like snow. Stir gently so that the layer is cracked and broken to collide with each other. This is what causes tectonic earthquake. Follow the pattern and distribution maps are special rules and narrowed, which follow the pattern of meetings tectonic plates that make up Earth's crust.
