[Earthquake Measures] Explanation of the Mechanism of Building Collapse Due to Earthquakes

A detailed explanation of the three main earthquake threats! Earthquakes and their mechanisms.

Why do buildings collapse? There are mainly three threats from earthquakes: "strong shaking," "repetition," and "resonance phenomena." No matter how earthquake-resistant a building is, if the shaking exceeds the building's strength, it will fail and start to sway. When a building sways significantly, its internal structure gets damaged, making it weaker and more susceptible to further shaking. *For more details, you can view the related links.
