Cole was determined to design a house that could withstand even the strongest earthquakes. He researched and learned about the different types of earthquakes and how they affect buildings. With his newfound knowledge, he set out to create a house that would keep him and his family safe.
Did you know that earthquakes can cause buildings to collapse because of the way they move? Cole discovered that by using special materials and designing his house with a strong foundation, he could reduce the risk of damage. He also learned about the importance of flexibility in building design.
Cole's earthquake-proof house features a unique dome-shaped design that allows it to sway during earthquakes. The house is built on a flexible foundation that can absorb the shock of the earthquake, keeping the house stable. The walls are made of a special material that can bend and flex without breaking.
