Tsunamis can range dramatically in height, from small 1-meter waves to colossal 500-meter mega-tsunamis. A 1-meter tsunami, often triggered by moderate undersea earthquakes or volcanic activity, may cause minor coastal flooding and strong currents but generally doesn’t result in significant damage. As the height increases to 10 meters, the impact becomes far more severe, with the potential to flood coastal areas, destroy buildings, and cause loss of life. A 50-meter tsunami, typically resulting

A Base Isolated System is an innovative earthquake-resistant design technique that significantly reduces the impact of seismic activity on buildings and structures. The concept, which was pioneered by engineers like William Robinson in the late 20th century, involves placing flexible bearings or isolation pads between a building’s foundation and its superstructure. These bearings allow the building to move independently from the ground, thereby decoupling it from the damaging forces of an earthq
