Earthquake engineering focuses on understanding the seismic behavior of structures and developing measures to mitigate the effects of earthquakes on buildings and infrastructure. This field considers factors such as ground motion, soil dynamics, and structural response to seismic forces. Engineers use seismic design codes and techniques such as base isolation, damping systems, and reinforced concrete construction to enhance the seismic performance of structures and reduce the risk of collapse during earthquakes.
