PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate the necessity for a user of a building to move from the building for the time being and to provide earthquake resistant plane and earthquake resisting building promoting the earthquake resistance of the frame by economical measures.北嶋 圭二...
To design an earthquake-proof building, engineers work to reinforce the structure and counteract a potential earthquake’s forces. Since earthquakes release energy that pushes on buildings from one direction, the strategy involves having the building push the opposite way. Here are some of the method...
Planning Matters: How to Build an Earthquake Proof House If your house is still in the construction phase, there are several things you can do to make it resistant to quakes. First is to make sure you’re building your home in a place where the soil beneath is firm and solid. Remember...
Many engineers and architects now believe it's possible to build anearthquake-proof building-- one that would ride the waves of the most fearsome temblor and remain as good as new once the shaking had stopped. The cost of such a building, however, would be staggering. Instead, construction ...

By now, we can all appreciate that the miracle of Japanese earthquake engineering prevented the Great East Japan Earthquake from killing millions rather than thousands (the radiation emanating from the Fukushima nuclear plants is another matter). But earthquake-proof buildings, how do they work?

When the earthquake occurs, in the outdoor to stay in place squat, hands to protect the head, pay attention to avoid tall buildings or street lights, billboards and other dangerous things. If you are indoors, do not jump to escape, do not go to the balcony, you should quickly protect...
Earthquake-Proof Buildings The new San Francisco International Airport uses many advanced building technologies to help it withstand earthquakes. One of these technologies involves giant ball bearings. The 267 columns that support the weight of an airport each ride on a 5-foot-diameter (1.5-meter) ...
Earthquake insurance: Traditional policies do not cover damage if it is caused by an earthquake, so you will need to take out a separate policy. Flood insurance: Traditional policies similarly do not cover damage caused by flooding. If your insurer doesn't provide flood insurance, you can purch...
