Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering Basics by surendra_panga is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Geotechnical earthquake engineering deals with reducing the effects of earthquakes through geology, seismology, geotechnical engineering and structural engineering. Records show that China has earthquake records from 3000 years ago while Japan has records from 1600 years ago, but the US only has around 350 years of records. While earthquakes cannot be prevented, their effects can be mitigated through design to reduce loss of life, injuries and property damage. Effective design must consider appropriateness
