No, the S waves do, they are the most destructive, because they have a bigger ratio of Antinodes and nodes. AKA Destructive interference.
Surface waves, which include Love waves and Rayleigh waves, are responsible for causing the most damage during an earthquake. These waves travel along the Earth's surface and have a greater amplitude compared to the body waves, resulting in more intense shaking and destruction of buildings and structures.
Seismic waves are produced by earthquakes, rather than the cause of them! The most damaging seismic waves are the surface waves of which there are two types. Love waves and Rayleigh waves. For more information, please see the related links and question.
Generally, long-period surface waves such as Love waves and Rayleigh waves are more dangerous during an earthquake as they cause the most destruction to structures and infrastructure. These waves have the ability to shake the ground horizontally and vertically, leading to significant ground movement and potential building collapse.
Surface waves are the earthquake waves that move in a horizontal direction along the ground. They are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake due to their side-to-side shaking motion.
These are known as seismic surface waves. They travel along the Earth's surface and cause the ground to move in a rolling motion. They are responsible for the most damage during an earthquake as they can generate strong shaking and displacement of structures.
Surface waves
The L- Wave or the Love and Rayleigh waves (collectively known as surface waves) cause most of the damage during an earthquake.

These waves travel along the Earth's surface and have a greater amplitude compared to the body waves, resulting in more intense shaking and destruction of buildings and structures.
Surface waves (e.g. Rayleigh waves, Love waves) that produce vertical motion of the ground surface produce the most damage during an earthquake.

Surface waves travel along the Earth's surface, causing most of the destruction during an earthquake. Body waves, on the other hand, travel through the Earth's interior. Body waves include primary (P-waves) and secondary (S-waves) waves, which are faster than surface waves.
