3. Design the building with sufficient base isolation and damping features.
4. Provide adequate lateral stability through shear walls, rocking systems, bracing, etc.
5. Use mass dampers in taller buildings to reduce the swaying effect of earthquake vibrations.
6. Implement advanced seismic control strategies like active control, energy dissipation systems, and tuned mass dampers.
7. Install seismic sensors and accelerometers to gauge and respond quickly to rapid shifts in ground movement.
