Student The future is unpredictable but we can plan for it!
The future is unpredictable… anything can happen, especially if no consideration is taken.
In 2017 so far, there has been a total of 7,640 earthquakes worldwide. This is a major issue within construction as earthqauakes can lead to damaged shelters and food, but more importantly a loss of lives. Therefore, buildings need to be designed so that they are robust and can withstand earthquakes.
