Abstract	Earthquakes are one of the most destructive natural disasters, causing significant loss of life and property. The design of earthquake-resistant buildings aims to minimize structural damage and ensure safety during seismic events. This report presents the principles, design considerations, and techniques used in earthquake-resistant construction. The study highlights the importance of proper structural design, material selection, and adherence to seismic codes. It also discusses different failure mechanisms and methods to improve building performance during earthquakes. The findings suggest that earthquake-resistant design significantly reduces risk and enhances structural durability.
