What is a building designed to reduce the amount of energy that reaches a building during an earthquake called?
Base-Isolated Building
Where is 'inside a corner of a building' during an earthquake?
I would say like in the corner of any room in the building that doesn't have any windows inside of it.
How does rubber moorings in a building help minimize damage during an earthquake?
Because rubber is flexible - so it absorbs a lot of the motion of the earth during a quake. Rubber moorings act as a kind of barrier between the building and the earth.
What definition of earthquake load?
In simple words, we can define it as``The total force exerted on a structure by an earthquake``. And in detail, ``The seismic loads on the structure during an earthquake result from inertia forces which were created by ground accelerations. The magnitude of these loads is a function of the following factors: mass of the building, the dynamic properties of the building, the intensity, duration, and frequency content of the ground motion, and soil-structure interaction``.
Do skyscraper's flex during a earthquake?

What is a base-isloated building?
it is designed to reduce the amount of energy that reaches the building during an earthquake
Does a base isolated building design increase the amount of energy that reaches the building during an earthquake?
No
What is a building designed to reduce the amount of energy that reaches the building during an earthquake is called?
A Base-isolated designed building reduces the amount of energy that reaches the building during an earthquake. For older buildings they are retrofitted for earthquakes.
What do you do if your in a building during an earthquake?
you stand under a doorway or hide under a table
What causes most injuries during an earthquake?
Building Collapse and falling objects
What will happen to a base-isolated building when seismic waves strike the building during an earthquake?
During an earthquake, a base-isolated building will experience reduced lateral movement and lower accelerations compared to buildings with conventional foundations. The seismic waves will be absorbed, dispersed, and redirected by the isolators, helping to protect the building and its contents from structural damage.
