Earthquake engineering
Earthquake engineering is a field that helps make sure buildings don't break when the ground moves. Earthquake engineers use special materials and design buildings differently so that they can stand strong even when the ground shakes a lot. They also try to make sure buildings won't be too dangerous if they do break.
