There are no building standards for structures that include designs for withstanding volcanic action. If a building could somehow survive the blast and the intense heat as well as seal out the toxic gas, it would have to withstand being buried in molten lava.

Were there any buildings left standing after The 1900 Storm in Galveston?

Yes, some structures survived the 1900 Storm in Galveston, particularly more solidly built buildings such as the Bishop's Palace and the St. Patrick's Church. These buildings were able to withstand the force of the hurricane due to their sturdy construction.


Why did some of the buildings survive the Kobe earthquake and some did'NT?

Buildings that were retrofitted to withstand earthquakes or those built with seismic design features were more likely to survive the Kobe earthquake. On the other hand, older buildings or structures that were poorly constructed were more susceptible to damage or collapse. Additionally, the soil composition and proximity to the fault line also played a role in determining which buildings survived and which did not.

Why do earthquakes destroy some buildings and not others?

Daring an earthquake, the ground shakes, twists, and heaves, causing buildings to move. Houses can shift on their foundations, crack, and tumble to the ground. Some buildings, however, are built to withstand violent earthquakes. Some are also braced with special materials to keep them standing.
