Question

Give two virtue of good earthquake resistant design

Answer 1

Earthquake-resistant structures are structures designed to protect buildingsfrom earthquakes. While no structurecan be entirely immune to damage from earthquakes, the goal of earthquake-resistant construction is to erect structures that fare better during seismic activity than their conventional counterparts

Answer 2

Earthquake is one of the most dangerous natural hazards in our planet.And it causes a lot of destruction which is almost irresistible.

But we can take various precautions to reduce the amount of earthquake.

The best precaution is to use earthquake resistant building designs, because;

1)This will surely help to resist the damage from various natural hazards and it's necessary because the buildings are the living place of humans.

2)This also ensures the proper safety measurements while making a building,these safety measurements are often ignored in the normal building plans.
