How can earthquake damage be made less worse?
Ooh! We did this in Geography!!! 1) construct buildings that are able to withstand the shock 2) Have earthquake drills so that people know what to do in the event of an earthquake (like in Japan) 3) Have an emergency services in a town or city close by ready to come out for help (although this could be a bit expensive) hope it helped!

How can the Torre Mayor withstand an earthquake?
It is actually because of the dampers that are provided at the diamond shaped geometry that the building is able to transfer the earthquake forces up and sway along with it. For more help do watch this video in related links below.
How can a brick or frame building be modified to help it withstand an earthquake?
Reinforce or strengthen the walls. Plywood panels can strengthen the walls. Metal connectors can strengthen the house's frame.

What are the best defenses against an earthquake?
The best defenses are shear core, base isolators, a deep foundation, shutters and cross bracing cross bracing is a system utilized to reinforce building structures in which diagonal supports intersect. Cross bracing can increase a building's capability to withstand seismic forces from an earthquake. Shutters will block out any object that will come in and will stop glass from shattering which could cause injuries or death base isolators will help a building withstand an earthquake as they sway the building the way an earthquake is going and bounces the building up and down. A deep foundation will make it more harder for a severe earthquake to take the building down and in a smaller magnitude earthquake it will hardly affect the building.
What can be done when a new home is being built to help prevent damage caused by liquefication?
to reduce earthquake damage, new buildings must be made stronger and more flexible. older buildings however must be modified to withstand stronger earthquakes
How can Australian help in the Japanes earthquake?
Convoy of Hope is an international relief agency that is already mobilizing to help the victims of the earthquake. Their disaster response capabilities are advanced, as shown after the earthquake in Haiti. Visit convoyofhope.org to see how you can help.
