Many buildings may have survived the earthquake due to a combination of factors. These factors could include the use of modern construction techniques and materials, adherence to strict building codes and regulations, proper design and structural engineering, and regular maintenance and inspection. Additionally, the location and intensity of the earthquake may also play a role in determining how well buildings withstand the shaking.

Why did so many buildings survive the christchurch earthquake?
because they were strong
Why is a pyroclastic flow more dangerous than an earthquake?
An earthquake create a hazard of collapsing buildings and falling objects, which are the greatest threats. So it is quite possible to survive. A pyroclastic flow produces searing temperaturesthat can be well over 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. You can survive the collapse of a building, but you cannot survive a pyroclastic flow.
Why did so many people die in the Haitian earthquake of January 2010?
Many people died because of collapsing buildings.
Why do people build earthquake proof buildings?
So that they/their items are not destroyed.
Did Haiti change after the earthquake?
Yes.......so many donations helpes. But the changes that happened to the buildings and people.....they were destroyed and killed. But it will be changed to a much better counrty!

Why did so many people die in the February 2011 New Zealand earthquake?
It was midday, so many people were out and about in the business center of Christchurch. The earthquake epicenter was very close to the surface, only five kilometers under Christchurch, so buildings were more seriously shaken. Most people were killed in a couple of big buildings, the CTV Building and the Pyne Gould Corporation Building where people were working through lunch.
Why is this important for us to identify areas which are prone to earthquake?
So as to avoid them. So as to make building regulations requiring buildings to be earthquake proof. So as to know where emergency resources ma need to be deployed.
