That the house may be carried away during such extreme events as landslides, heavy winds, floods, and avalanches is one of the risks when people have their homes located on loose soil. That the house may fall to pieces is one of the risks when people don't make their homes earthquake resistant.
What happens when an earthquake shakes a house?
