how does Tsunami Occurs? A tsunami is a long sea
wave that could be
generated by a rapidly
occurring change in
seafloor topography
caused by tectonic
displacement.

hitting one another.
What is vertical setbacks? A vertical setback is a
horizontal, or near
horizontal, offset in the
plane of an exterior
facade of a structure.
What is Soil Liquefaction?. Soil liquefaction during
an earthquake is a
process that leads to
