      Various precautions to be observed while constructing earthquake-resistant buildings are as follows:

      Material With Adequate Ductility: It describes the tolerance of plastic deformation before getting failed so the highly ductile materials can absorb energy in large amounts without getting broken.

      Seismic Dampers: These help to absorb shocks as it absorbs the destructive energy and protects the building from sustaining it.

      A Drainage Mechanism: As structural complications can get created by pooled water so there is a need for the proper drainage system.

      Structural Reinforcement: The braced frames and shear walls transfer lateral forces from the floors and roof to the foundation so, more structural reinforcement must be provided for structures that are only a few stories tall versus skyscrapers.

      An Appropriate Foundation: The construction of a flexible foundation for a building could help it stay standing during an earthquake so it should be created appropriately.

      Material With Adequate Ductility:  It describes the tolerance of plastic deformation before getting failed so the highly ductile materials can absorb energy in large amounts without getting broken.
