Understanding Earthquake Forces: Why Don't They Travel Up?

Earthquakes are powerful natural forces that can cause significant destruction. They occur when tectonic plates push against each other, creating stress that is released in the form of seismic waves. This release of energy can lead to severe damage, including collapsing buildings and harming infrastructure. Understanding why these earthquakes mainly cause damage horizontally rather than vertically can help improve our preparedness and decrease the impact on communities. Learn how these powerful forces work and the implications for construction and safety.
