Buildings with ”rocking” technology would be more earthquake-resilient, finds CWRU civil engineer
Buildings that rock during an earthquake and return to plumb would withstand seismic shaking better than structural designs commonly used in vulnerable zones of California and elsewhere, a Case Western Reserve University researcher has found. Those buildings would also be more easily and cheaply re...
