Q

What do you need for a house to survive an earthquake best?

A

foundation clips, spring foundation, and a light, strong, and flexible wall frame. the foundation clips help the house stay attached to the fountain, making it so that it wont slide off during an earthquake. spring foundation isolates the house from the ground, making it so that the house wont shake as much as the ground. a frame like steel would be best because it is light, strong, and flexible
