Hi-Tech iSolutions LLP on 29 Jul 16Structural engineers might have often heard of the saying that 'earthquakes do not kill people, buildings do'. It is so true, and we have learnt this the hard way. Recently Nepal experienced one of the worst earthquakes. Buildings got razed from the face of earth and there were several casualties reported. While we cannot prevent earthquakes, it is definitely possible to ensure that the damage caused due to this natural disaster is minimal. This is possible via earthquake resistant buildings and cities.
