What can be done when a new home is being built to prevent damage caused by liquefaction?
to reduce earthquake damage, new buildings must be made stronger and more flexible. older buildings however must be modified to withstand stronger earthquakes

Will homeowners insurance cover a cracked foundation caused by an earthquake?

How does an earthquakes cause each of these types of damage?

Other damage caused by earthquakes results from landslides, mudslides, avalanches, fires, soil liquefaction and tsunamis.

What characteristics of earthquakes caused the most severe damage?
The most severe damage from earthquakes is typically caused by a combination of factors, including their magnitude, depth, and proximity to populated areas. Higher magnitude earthquakes release more energy, leading to greater ground shaking and destruction. Shallow earthquakes tend to cause more damage than deeper ones because they are closer to the surface. Additionally, the geological conditions of the affected area, such as soil type and building structures, can exacerbate the impact of the shaking.
