Ground Acceleration and Soil Type Key Factors in Earthquake Damage
Ground acceleration, measured as multiples of gravity (g), is a key factor in earthquake damage; values above 0.2g cause damage, while above 0.4g significantly increases collapse risk. Soil type is also crucial, with loose soils amplifying ground motion and causing liquefaction.
