EADG (Earthquake-Affected Design Guidelines)

EADG, or Earthquake-Affected Design Guidelines, are standards used in engineering to ensure structures can withstand seismic events. They provide technical criteria for designing buildings and infrastructure that remain safe and functional after an earthquake. These guidelines consider factors like building materials, structural strength, and flexibility to absorb seismic energy. The goal is to minimize damage, protect occupants, and allow for rapid recovery. EADG helps engineers create resilient structures by integrating seismic risk assessments into the design process, ultimately enhancing safety and reducing earthquake-related risks for communities.
