Answers
"Appropriate sizing of the building so that it can stand strong even after the vibrations of an earthquake.
Use of base isolation and vibration control technologies to reduce the impact of the earthquakes.
Use of computer simulations and observations to make earthquake resistant buildings which can survive the shaking of earth at the time of seismic threat."
Precautions to be taken by Mr Sarthak:
1. Providing a separation section: A gap of specific width between two buildings to be provided to avoid hammering and allowing movement during earthquake.
2. Base Isolation: It involves the installation of lead-rubber bearings in a structure, effectively uncoupling it from destructive ground motions.
3. Placing electric conduits: These are to be placed carefully avoiding any damage to walls.
