When the two crusts rubbing together start to crack and cracks form and big or small pieces of the crust break off of the big piece in which they came from. (The crust is the land) Its called the epicenter.
A crack in the Earth's crust that can lead to an earthquake is called a fault.
Sorry misspelling - what size of an earthquake would destroy thirty foot bridges and leave half foot cracks in the earth?

During a drought, the lack of water causes the soil to dry out and shrink. This can lead to cracks forming in the ground as the soil contracts. The cracks allow the earth to separate, creating visible fissures on the surface.
"Fissure" is one word meaning a crack in the surface of the Earth. Others are "fault" and "rift".
Cracks in the Earth's surface are called faults. These are fractures where movement has occurred along the fault plane, leading to displacement of the rocks on either side. Earthquakes commonly occur along faults.
No because Volcanic ash only spreads lava around the surface the only natural disaster that cracks the surface is a earthquake. A earthquake is when two of the earths plates are moving and it rumbles the earth
