    1. The structures should be made with good quality steel and concrete so that they can bear load and deformation.

    2. Buildings should be made laterally strong so that they can overcome dominant lateral forces.

    3. In High seismic activity areas devices such as energy absorbers should be used. Base isolation must necessarily be done.

    4. Use of hybrid Fiber Reinforced Concrete to increase the toughness of a structure in a Moment Resisting Frame. Moment resisting frames are frames that resist moment of any devices.
