Earthquakes often happen near volcanoes,but this is not always true.the center of some are under the sea.the bottom of the sea suddenly moves.the powerful forces inside the earth break the rocks.the coast is shaken and great waves appear.these waves travel long distances and rush over the land when they reach it.they are strong enough to break down houses and other buildings.sometimes they break more buildings than the earthquake itself.
What kind of building stands up best in an earthquake?A building with concrete walls is perhaps the best.A steel frame will make it even stronger.the frame holds the different parts together,and the walls do not easily fall.there is less chance of fire because concrete and steel do not burn.this kind of buildings is the safest.
