The four pieces of technology that are designed to make buildings earthquake resistant are active tendon systems, cross braces, tuned mass dampers, and base insulators. The active tendon system uses computer sensors placed at the bottom of a building to shift the weight of large buildings as ground movement is detected. Cross braces are two diagonal beams that form an X and allow the building to withstand seismic activity. Tuned mass dampers are devices mounted in a building to reduce the amplitude of mechanical vibrations. Base insulators are pads that allow a building to be built away from the ground to give it some movement and sway when earthquakes occur.
That would be a "kind of strong" earthquake but 8+ is huge.
The word focus (or hypocentre) is used to describe the location within the Earth where an earthquake occurs. The point directly above this on the Earth's surface is known as the earthquake's epicentre.
Magnitude is a term used to describe how much energy was released by an earthquake. It gives an indication of the amplitude of the seismic waves that occur and also on the length of the fault rupture zone and the displacement along the fault. A magnitude 7 earthquake is defined by the US Geological Survey as a "major" earthquake. In general earthquake over a magnitude of 4 or 5 can cause damage although the exact reasons why some earthquake are more damaging than others is more complext than just the absolute magnitdue of the earthquake. For more information on this, see the related question.
The tectonic plates that collide vertical to one opposit end of the other so that the can crash making an earthquake this is done to global warming but really it is earthquake causing global warming
that the earthquakes can and will ouccer in certen spots. it also show that there can be reppeded earthquakes in the same magnitued
Earthquakes can cause damage by shaking the ground, leading to buildings collapsing, landslides, and tsunamis in coastal areas. The intensity of the damage depends on factors like the magnitude of the quake, depth of the earthquake, distance from the epicenter, and the quality of buildings and infrastructure in the affected area.
An earthquake CAN NOT destroy a country.
you are done!
Flood-prone buildings.
Earthquake
You can describe a heat resistant glass for cooking vessels by saying that it does not break under high temperatures. This is because it is made with a chemical element called boron. Pyrex is an example of heat resistant glassware.
What term is used to describe buildings that are repeatedly besieged by floods?

That would be a "kind of strong" earthquake but 8+ is huge.
Destructive, powerful, unpredictable.
Strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant.
Base isolators: These are devices that separate the building from the ground to reduce the impact of seismic movements. Damping systems: These are designed to absorb and dissipate seismic energy to reduce the building's movements during an earthquake. Flexible piping systems: These allow for movement and flexibility within a building's plumbing and mechanical systems during seismic events. Reinforced concrete walls: Adding reinforced concrete walls helps increase a building's resistance to lateral forces during an earthquake.
