How do you make a school Earthquake proof?
you can make a school Earthquake proof by- Þ Shatter proof glass Þ Add a safe room where students go when a earthquake strikes (a room with no windows, electronics, and desks or chairs) Add extra layers of sheetrock
What are the best defenses against an earthquake?
The best defenses are shear core, base isolators, a deep foundation, shutters and cross bracing cross bracing is a system utilized to reinforce building structures in which diagonal supports intersect. Cross bracing can increase a building's capability to withstand seismic forces from an earthquake. Shutters will block out any object that will come in and will stop glass from shattering which could cause injuries or death base isolators will help a building withstand an earthquake as they sway the building the way an earthquake is going and bounces the building up and down. A deep foundation will make it more harder for a severe earthquake to take the building down and in a smaller magnitude earthquake it will hardly affect the building.
Any building that wishes to survive a substantial earthquake should be able to do this?
Any building that wishes to survive a substantial earthquake should be able to flex. Construction companies know how to make a building better withstand the effects of earthquakes by making them more flexible.
Why can rich countries build earthquake proof buildings?
Because they're rich. They can afford the materials and engineers to design them and build them. The rich countries share designs with poorer countries, but the poor countries simply don't have the wealth to build the structures.
Name the device used as earthquake proof for skyscrapers?
A clever New Zealander named (Dr) Bill Robinson invented two such useful devices, the Lead-Rubber Bearing is one, now widely used even as a retro-fit on appropriate buildings and bridges. The Lead Extrusion Damper, a shock-absorber type of device in which lead is the fluid, which in its deformation, absorbs energy. And, importantly, the lead will quickly re-crystallize in the tube, ready for its next challenge.A third type of device is an energy absorbing pendulum, used in tall buildings to reduce even wind sway.
How is concrete used in building a skyscraper?
Concrete is used in building a skyscraper to help make it wind proof and able to support its own weight. The building can also be earthquake safe when rods are put through the concrete to make it stable.
How can you make your house earthquake proof?
you can't
Why is this important for us to identify ares which are prone to earthquake?
So as to avoid them. So as to make building regulations requiring buildings to be earthquake proof. So as to know where emergency resources ma need to be deployed.

How do you make a earthquake proof structure?
under all the land are giant rocks everytime it shakes you can make a n earthquake if the movement is not that hard you wont feel it it will also rub each other it will get heat and it will also caust volcanic erruption
What does a house have to have to be earthquake proof?
you can use cement to make your foundation stronger to keep it from moving or if the building is larger you can use technology that is mostly used in earth quake zones such as in California
How has architects tried to design earthquake proof high rise buildings?
because they make it earth quake proof dummy
How do you make a building tornado proof?
Build it underground.
How do they earthquake proof buildings?
The build the buildings up strong and they make sure that the doorways are nice and sturdy
How do people avoid or limit an earthquake's damages?
People avoid or limit an earthquake's damage by building structures that will not fail in the earthquake or subsequent events and make it safe at the same time.
What do engineers do to learn how to make a building more likely to survive an earthquake?
flexible, circular moorings
