2.  How can a structure be build to withstand Earthquakes.

3.  Wendell, I researched Haiti call for stronger houses. The article states that when Haiti had the earthquake there houses fell really easy.  Indya, I researched what earthquake did to houses. In the article it stated that not all houses are damage by earthquake it all depends on how it was build.  Malik, I researched htttp://sciencemuseum. org. the article stated that engineers are trying to make earthquake resistant buildings.  Laurence, I researched on a site that informed me about problems that occur when building house. The site also told about different types of buildings.

8.  Tape two popsicle sticks together with tape until you have made a house in a loose jumbled formation.  Take two pencils and brake them in half then wire those two pencils together continue this until you have a wire house.  Take two popsicles sticks and put them together with one play dough ball continue this until you have a cube formation  Take one ball of play dough and connect it to four to toothpicks continue until you have a triangle formation.  Take the houses and test them three times on the shake table then write the data down so you have it for your power point. 

11. Our results relate to the real world because it shows that houses that have strong and flexible supports (wire, and/or play dough houses) stand longer than house with weak supports that are not balanced. We think houses that are in earthquake zones should be built with wire like supports that are flexible yet strong and durable. We also think that houses should not only be made wit strong supports but also a stable base. We think this because the Haiti house collapsed, before the supports broke, so supports will do no good with out a strong foundation.
