What is the relationship between plate boundaries and where earthquakes happen?
Plate boundaries are the absolute edges of the tectonic plates that make up our earth's crust. These plate boundaries clash with others making what are known as fault lines, which are the cause of earthquakes.
Why are earthquakes NOT a form of weather?
Earthquakes are caused by movements in the Earth's crust, specifically the release of stress built up in rocks along fault lines. This is different from weather phenomena, which involve atmospheric conditions such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. Weather events like storms, precipitation, and temperature changes are driven by the Earth's atmosphere, while earthquakes are a result of tectonic activity.
What types of buildings face greatest risk from earthquakes?
Houses in earthquake prone areas, like Greece for example, are made to be elastic. And on stilts, so the entire surface of the building doesnt touch the ground. The foundations of the buildings are concrete, with at its core, iron bars coiled up like gigantic srpings. Most appartment buildings which are built today in Greece can withstand earthquakes with forces up to 8.0 on the Richter scale.
Why do you get big earthquakes?
Big earthquakes occur when tectonic plates, which make up the Earth's crust, suddenly release built-up stress through movement along faults. This sudden release of energy creates seismic waves that shake the ground violently, causing significant damage and potentially resulting in large earthquakes.
Does deposition causes earthquakes?
Deposition itself does not cause earthquakes. Earthquakes are typically caused by tectonic forces within the Earth's crust, such as the movement of tectonic plates or the release of built-up stress along faults. Deposition, which is the process of laying down sediment or rock by natural forces like water or wind, does not directly trigger earthquakes.

They use more of a flexible walls and beams instead of strong flat beams, so that in an earthquake they can sway, not fall.
