🌍 What is Seismic Engineering?
Did you know buildings can be designed to dance with earthquakes instead of collapsing?
Seismic Engineering is the science that helps protect structures and save lives during seismic events.

Imaging below the surface reveals one of Los Angeles's webs of faults

A major fault is often surrounded by a web of secondary faults created as the forces that cause slip deform nearby rocks. This damage zone can act as a record of fault activity, but what we can learn from it—such as how the fault may behave during future earthquakes—has not been fully explored.
