In an earthquake, this building serves as a shelter.

避難所 is the common word for an evacuation shelter during disasters; 待避所 is less common and can also refer to a roadside turnout.
Standard kanji spelling for both senses; 待避 suggests waiting and taking refuge.
Alternate spelling using 退 (retreat/evacuate); less common but still used.
Compound of 待避 (たいひ, 'waiting and taking refuge') + 所 (じょ, 'place'). The exact historical derivation is uncertain, but the word is formed from standard Sino-Japanese elements.
