Simple retangular shapes are building configuration response well to earthquakes. They can distribute force more evenly. U, L, H,T configurations don't resist well because of strong concentrated forcein the inside corners created by the those shapes.
Answer = Stand in the doorway, stay under a table and stay indoors.
during a earthquake you should stand in the middle of a road so then nothing can collapse or land on you, and if so it is very rare, Love all my fans, baby girls out der show em what ye mean MEOW !
Any that are built in an earthquake area if you don't want them to fall. And any that would not stand on their own in an earthquake.
As the plate collided India's plate went under China's so when the pressure of china's plate bending could stand no more it popped back in to the normal position before the pressure built up on it.
Houses can only be made to resist earthquakes. They can only be designed and constructed to permit a minimum amount of damage when a quake hits. A big enough quake will destroy about any structure. It may be possible to build an "earthquake proof" house by making it extremely small and building it out of moderately thick reinforced concrete, welded plate steel or something like that which is both strong and rigid. If an appropriately designed structure was sitting on an appropriate pad (but separate from it), a huge quake would only succeed in moving the house around because it would be too small and strong to "break" under the stress. If such a structure was built, a quake would probably, at most, shear off (or tear off flexible) water, gas and waste water lines while making a mess out of the inside.A structure like the one described would probably be minimally functional and no fun to live in. It may be possible to engineer a "floating" rigid structure out of other materials, but anything on this order would cost a mint. You might always build the whole thing out of rubber and dump the rigid idea. That way when the shaking stops, everything returns to its normal shape. Everything on the inside would be a mess, though. Those (the completely rigid and "unbreakable" structure or the completely "flexible" one) are the two ideas that will withstand a quake. Combining the two will involve trade-offs that will almost certainly defeat the project. Think about this problem and you may come up with other ideas. They are also are made of steel, fiber glass, and woodcarboardstealyour mom's apronshoe laces in stress points
dONT STAND NEAR AND IN BUILDING, TRY TO GO TO OPEN PLACES..(THEY ARE SAFE)
you stand under a doorway or hide under a table
Yes, the Eiffel Tower can withstand an earthquake due to its flexible structure that allows it to sway without breaking. It is designed to withstand seismic activity up to a magnitude of 7 on the Richter scale.

It's a house that can stand during an earthquake. STUPID adding to that remark, :) an earthquake safe house has special features, meaning it is less affected by an earthquake. things like coils between the structure and the base are common in affected countries
There can be no earthquake proof building. To build such a structure would be prohibitively expensive.In the recent Christchurch earthquake, the peak ground acceleration was over 2 g. To design for this is not economically feasible.And as the question suggests, the survival of a building/structure is a property of both the structure itself, and the ground on which it stands.
nothing can stand the power of god (earthquake)

During an earthquake, it is safest to drop down onto your hands and knees to prevent being knocked over. Then, cover your head and neck with your arms and seek shelter under a sturdy piece of furniture if possible. Hold on and stay put until the shaking stops.
you shuldnt stand in the middle of a room coz somehting could hit uz so uz should get under the table
it will not break it will just stand because it is build to be strong.
