No, "destructive" has nothing to do with "catastrophic"; it just means that two waves act in opposite directions.

Name the conditions required for two waves to interfere constructively?
They must in phase and must have at least approximately the same frequency. If the two waves are in phase and have the same frequency, then they will have continuous constructive interference. If the two waves have different, but similar, frequencies then they will alternate between constructive and destructive interference.
What is it called when a combined wave has a smaller amplitude than the original waves?
If the resulting amplitude is smaller, then it's "destructive interference".If the resulting amplitude is larger, then it's "constructive interference".Looks like the name you give it depends on which wave you're more interested in.When a large wave and a small wave interfere, the resulting amplitude can belarger than either one, smaller than either one, or midway between them.If the resulting amplitude is midway between the individual amplitudes, and youwere using the larger one to communicate with, then from your point of view, theinterference is destructive. If you were more interested in the smaller one, thenas far as you're concerned the same interference is constructive.
