Earthquake Proof Buildings, Jeven
Buildings on normal foundations bend and break up during an earthqake. They break because the tops are moving but the bottoms aren't. Buildings on special rubber springs can move with the earthquake and the top and bottom move together so it doesn't break. Another way is to inject cement into sandy area's where they are building structures, without cement the building can tilt and sink in an earthquake.
