Earthquakes are among the most unpredictable and destructive natural disasters. The sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust can cause ground shaking, surface rupture, and secondary hazards such as landslides, tsunamis, and fires. With seismic activity affecting millions of people worldwide, the need for earthquake-resistant structures has never been more pressing. These structures are specifically designed to withstand the forces generated during an earthquake, reducing the risk of damage to buildings, infrastructure, and, most importantly, human life. In this blog, we will explore the importance of earthquake-resistant design, the key principles involved, and the innovative technologies that are shaping safer, more resilient buildings and cities. The Importance of Earthquake-Resistant Design Buildings in seismic zones are at constant risk of damage or collapse due to earthquakes. In densely populated urban areas, the destruction of even a few buildings can have devasta...
