@amazeifystore: Why did some Mexico City buildings collapse while others stood? 🌎 The 1985 Michoacán earthquake showed that the danger wasn’t just the shaking. Soft lake-bed sediments amplified long-period waves, some mid-rise buildings resonated with them, and weak columns, construction problems, and building-to-building pounding made the damage worse. Earthquakes expose decisions made long before the ground starts moving. Do you think the biggest factor was the soil or the engineering? 👇 #MexicoCity #1985Earthquake #EarthquakeScience #SeismicEngineering #StructuralEngineering #Geology #EarthquakeSafety #UrbanDisasters #EngineeringFacts #NaturalDisasters
