Why can our houses stand winds up 50-80 mtr ? here in Iceland

maybe becouse we make the houses stronger that you do ?
why do houses here not go down in earthquakes here like in LA
or elsewhere ?


we build our houses strong , both wood and stone .

like this one http://mbl.is/mm/fasteignir/fasteign/?eign=233994>/a>

or this one http://mbl.is/mm/fasteignir/fasteign/?eign=238536

or this one witch is timber house and its my house , I lived
here through strong earthquakes 6,5 and 6,7 and wind up 60 mtr pr
sec.


start building a better houses .........   




good luck
