They need a strong foundation and better structure for Earthquakes and hurricanes that are stronger

# data[].attributes.body
Haiti was very unprepared in this situation the soft mushy bases should of been stronger, better materials, and  more help on the way!

# data[].attributes.body
When rebuilding, the foundation is SOOOOOOO important! Without a good foundation, everything falls apart.

# data[].attributes.body
You need to be prepared for an earthquake either by not using concrete for buildings or have easy exiting measures. Building structures that are earthquake resistant or built to withstand earthquakes will help the most endangered earthquake areas.

We need to be prepared to ensure minimal damage

# data[].attributes.body
Places closer to faults shake more. Also concrete is good for hurricanes and bad for earthquakes.

# data[].attributes.body
The people in Haiti need to build their buildings on a strong, stable base.

# data[].attributes.body
Aftershock can be really bad so also be prepared for that to

That when high magnitude Earthquakes hit poor countries such as Haiti many lives can be lost. The houses need to be rebuilt in stronger rock ground rather than soft soil. Also more equipment and technology there can alert the citizens of Haiti earlier.

# data[].attributes.body
Also do not use concrete it can hurt people

# data[].attributes.body
The smaller buildings the better stretch and less damage.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to insure that the buildings are sturdy and can withstand earthquakes. There needs to be a better way to get humanitarian help to the Haitians. They need to have adequate supplies in a earthquake safe place in case of emergencies.

# data[].attributes.body
When ever an earthquake is coming we need to be more prepared by having Better structure like some place in Asia has toppling structure which is a good idea that we can do in America, if or we can have a better base

# data[].attributes.body
Haiti was not prepared for the earthquake. We need to be prepared with safety measures, stronger ground, and better equipment

# data[].attributes.body
Be ready for anything and after shock. The building was not stable. The top was extremely heavy. The building could also fall on people.

# data[].attributes.body
We can see that third world country’s are getting destroyed and we can learn what things help during an earthquake like that one. We can also learn that we need to build a strong base structure as to reduce the recoil of the earthquake. We also need a top that goes into the center and that it is heavy

# data[].attributes.body
We can learn that you need to be prepared for earthquakes and to use lighter building materials

# data[].attributes.headline
We need to design better building and plant them on better soil so the surrounding area doesn’t get crushed. We have to always prepare beforehand so if there ever was one no one dies.

# data[].attributes.body
We should always be prepared for an earthquake. And not make the buildings out of concrete. Better structure.

# data[].attributes.body
To be ready for the strong after shocks

# data[].attributes.body
The buildings that were destroyed weren’t built on solid and tough ground and that it can effect the builds. We can build more buildings on the solid ground

# data[].attributes.body
We can learn to build more sturdy buildings because of Haiti’s earthquake. It would be way less likely to collapse if buildings were built with stability. Construction can help reduce the risk of death because if buildings are built with strong and sturdy construction then people would be more safe in a building that is stable.

# data[].attributes.body
We can learn better structures and foundation to build on and to be ready

# data[].attributes.body
They would have to build strong structures and sturdy foundations so that the build will have less of damage and be more sturdy.

# data[].attributes.body
We can learn to always be prepared for the unexpected. If they had put in some precautions beforehand, there might’ve been less damage.

# data[].attributes.body
We build less buildings on the mushy/unstable soil so they won’t fall as much and if we do we need to build them in a way they can take less damage. We need to build them with stronger material to withstand the shaking

# data[].attributes.headline
The smaller the buildings are the better chance of it falling .

The structure needs more strength so it will not be damaged or destroyed as much as before

# data[].attributes.body
That the ground madders when building a building. In New York  the bedrock is really close to the surface and will not shake. Soft ground will shake more and fall apart.

# data[].attributes.body
We should build better buildings with strong structures that are not built on bad soil

# data[].attributes.body
In the future if we build structures we should build them to make less affect from earthquakes and also natural disasters.

# data[].attributes.body
Buildings in areas where earth quakes occurs often should be designed to withstand earthquakes.

# data[].attributes.body
The better structured building are much less damaged

# data[].attributes.body
The Buildings were not made to last through earthquakes. We should help build better structures to prevent the devastating effects of crumbling buildings. Buildings and other structures should be built to last, so another earthquake doesn’t take the people there by surprise.

Earthquakes are huge and dangerous. Earthquakes have killed many people. There are people that have that find out when it’s going to hit, where and how we can prepare for it. The USGS help a lot to track it to

# data[].attributes.body
The buildings weren’t very stable so when the earthquake occurred, it could knock down many many buildings like it said in the article. Also that there were so many people who couldn’t go home because their home was ruined which shows that half a million people weren’t prepared for this earthquake. The buildings also killed many because the structure was bad so they were unsteady and fell. Also if the earth cracked, the buildings would fall. Concrete is heavy and good for hurricanes but not for earthquakes.

# data[].attributes.body
In an area that is an earthquake hotspot, building must be built on very stable and secure ground. If the soil is loose, the building may fall and crush the scared civilians underneath. Building homes in a place with stable ground ensures the safety of many people.

# data[].attributes.body
We should have a strong structure plates and workers

Build on solid stable ground and stay away from tall buildings so that you don’t get crushed. Know how to protect yourself and if you are high up get under a solid desk and hold it down on you

We need to be prepared and help out our fellow countries with sizmagraphs that way next time the rocus and chaos of Haiti doesn’t happen and that way the downfall of a countries politocol part does not hhappen

# data[].attributes.body
Haiti was poorly prepared for the earthquake, they engineered building with cement that could be useful for tornados and strong winds, but it killed ,any people when it landed on them. The houses and buildings that were engineered good stayed longer. We learned that when in a earth quakes try to get away from building and hold on to something sturdy. There was many after shocks after the earthquake and thankfully the had humanitarian aid after to help.

# data[].attributes.body
The building structure was not very strong so it would fall because the top is really heavy. If there is a jolt of an earthquake it starts to crack and fall. It falls on people and they die because of the intense of mass falling on them

# data[].attributes.body
That buildings need more structure so the damage isn’t as bad

# data[].attributes.body
In Haiti they weren’t ready for Earthquakes. Their houses were made for hurricanes, not Earthquakes. They made their houses out of concrete.

# data[].attributes.body
The buildings should be rebuilt close to better geological places. If the houses were in a better place then there would be less buildings destroyed.

# data[].attributes.body
They lost many people and buildings. They lost all the poorer houses and buildings. The concrete buildings fell and killed and destroyed homes. There was half a million homeless people.

# data[].attributes.body
We shouldn’t build our buildings on soft ground because all of the soil will crumble under our feet. Not everything was well-structured, but a few buildings survived.

# data[].attributes.body
We should build buildings better and more secure. We also now have technology to track these things. So if they detect anything we can evacuate. Also to be ready for mor after shocks.

# data[].attributes.body
We need a strong base and strong  structure

# data[].attributes.body
What we should take-away from this is that we should copy the blueprints of the buildings that stayed up and build that type of structure into buildings near earthquake infested areas

# data[].attributes.body
What I learned is that this girl is trying to make new they are architected better do that if another earthquake comes it will hopefully not do as much damage and have as much casualties. So in conclusion it is very smart to prepare if another one would to happen

# data[].attributes.body
They need to make the buildings more structured and strong and not weak so people don’t get killed. Also maybe like a siren to warn people a earthquake is coming

# data[].attributes.body
They built the structures and buildings so they won’t fall but will still wobble a bit

# data[].attributes.body
Not to build with concrete because it will kill people when the building falls and crumbles

# data[].attributes.body
If an earthquake occurs people should build strong and balanced  buildings because the earth will be shaking under the ground. In result if people make stronger buildings there will be less destruction and there won’t be so much to pay for damage causes by the earthquake

# data[].attributes.body
Smaller building like houses suffered more damage

# data[].attributes.body
it will be possible to open the port by using standard and well-established marine engineering design

# data[].attributes.body
We also wanted to asses the causes for the extensive damage to the buildings and roads and similar kinds of structures. And we wanted to deploy portable seismographs so we could record the shaking from aftershocks.
What was unique about your trip to Haiti as compared to other international earthquake response trips that you have made in the past?

# data[].attributes.body
If there is an earthquake strong structures that are on hard ground are more likely to not fall apart. Softer ground is more likely to fall apart, like sand.

# data[].attributes.body
That we need to have a siren or warning for an earthquake so we can take cover. To prevent many deaths and destruction you should make a well sturdy building that will prevent damage.

# data[].attributes.body
The earthquake was big and dangerous,killing many, but we can track it and be prepared for it to happen. The USGS is a big help to all of that and helping people work through the earthquake and track it and have plans can really make a difference We also need to build big sturdy buildings.👍👍🌏🌏🌏🌏🌏

# data[].attributes.body
To make the buildings,towers, and houses more sturdier in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
Earthquakes can cause big and lots of destruction. We should be ready for the preshocks of the earthquake, to start to be prepared. We also would need a seismograph, as well as a smart seismologist.

# data[].attributes.body
That if we can make a well structured building it will have less damage done to it

# data[].attributes.body
They can Study the number of aftershocks and the distribution of shaking throughout the place where the earthquake is taking place. In this case it would be Haiti. They do this so they can identify soft, marshy soil which can be used to build structures (buildings) in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
Well structured buildings suffer less damage

# data[].attributes.body
Well engineered buildings can withstand earthquakes as far up to magnitudes like 7.

# data[].attributes.body
That we had many aftershocksafterthe Haiti earthquake

# data[].attributes.body
To prepare for earthquakes we need to know how to protect ourselves. You also need a well built structure of the building you are staying in. After the earthquake happens we can always get humanitarian aid (medical stuff) and study places that have less seismic activity so next time you won’t get hit. Also you need to have technology and people with you so that, after the earthquake people are able to find you and connect to you.

-We should be ready for earthquakes because it can cause mass destruction.
- there needs to be seismographs in Haiti so that we know how bad it is going to be
