When it comes to earthquake safety in urban areas, the debate centers on whether low-rise or high-rise buildings are safer. Despite the inherent risks, advancements in technology allow for early detection and preparedness. Although earthquakes pose a significant threat, especially in countries like China with strict building codes aiming for抗震性能 (e.g., "小震不坏,中震可修,大震不倒"), modern architecture is divided into different seismic resistance categories to minimize damage.
