What material can withstand Jupiter?
Most materials can withstand Jupiter.
What kind of shaking can a building withstand the best in an earthquake?
Most buildings can withstand vertical shaking
What are some reasons why the damage from the earthquake was so severe?
the type of earthquake was a strong one and the building were not made to withstand an earthquake
Why there was no tsunami after Haiti's earthquake?
Haiti's earthquake was not strong enough to produce a tsunami. The earthquake caused a lot of destruction in Haiti, but that was largely because the buildings in Haiti had not been designed to withstand earthquakes. The earthquake in Haiti had its epicentre on LAND not in the ocean. Thus there was no sea floor movement associated with the earthquake which could have produced a tsunami.
Why did so many buildings survive the earthquake?
Many buildings may have survived the earthquake due to a combination of factors. These factors could include the use of modern construction techniques and materials, adherence to strict building codes and regulations, proper design and structural engineering, and regular maintenance and inspection. Additionally, the location and intensity of the earthquake may also play a role in determining how well buildings withstand the shaking.
Why might a building that is made of flexible material like wood withstand the effects of an earthquake better than a building that is made of a rigid material like brick?
Rigid materials may shatter when exposed to the waves of an earthquake.
Can you design a city to better withstand an earthquake?
no, it can't happen because brick can't withstand a 1.0-8.0+ earthquake
What are the strongest building materials to protect from earthquakes?
Base isolation pads can be built to absorb the vibrations to withstand earthquakes. Building materials can be reinforced to withstand an earthquake. For example, wood can be reinforced with bolts to make the wood more secure.
How big of earthquake magnitude can a building withstand?
That depends on how well the building was constructed. One of poor construction might only be able to withstand up to about a magnitude 5. A well constructed reinforced building may withstand up to an 8.5.
What can withstand an earthquake?
Most buildings that are designed to.

What materials can withstand high temperature?
There are two non-metal materials that come to mind. Ceramics and diamond can withstand high temperatures.
What nonmetal materials can withstand high temperatures?

What are intelligent buildings designed to do?
to withstand the strains placed upon them by an earthquake
How can a brick or wood frame be modified to help it withstand an earthquake?
