Denver, CO — The techniques for building earthquake resistant buildings have evolved steadily since the early 1900s. Academics and private researchers continue to look for new ways to improve structural integrity and load bearing capacities.

According to PhysOrg.com, researchers are finding that cold-formed steel enhances the earthquake resistance of buildings. High school students, graduate students and various other parties are conducting experiments aimed at analyzing the effectiveness of steel as it relates to entire structures. This comprehensive approach is leading to breakthroughs and new insights.

Earthquake resistance is important for those living on the west coast of the U.S., which experiences significant seismic activity. Those living on the east coast or in other parts of the country also benefit from the stability offered by cold-formed steel reinforced buildings. Natural disasters take on many forms and each type places stress on structures. Steel is proven for its ability to stand-up to the elements and provides an extra layer of safety for occupants.
