Earthquakes can cause significant destruction and loss of life. That's why civil engineers are tasked with building earthquake-resistant structures. It's one of the biggest challenges facing civil engineers today. To increase undergraduate students' awareness of constructing earthquake-resistant structures, Civilization 2024 (Season 1) is planning to host a competition called "Quake Quest" in which participants will build earthquake-resistant structures.On the event day, the participants have a time limit to build a construction using the materials supplied. Every story in the building will have a super-imposed dead load. The amount of load will depend on the floor area specified at rulebook.
The winner is the construction that endures the longest time as well as all other judging criteria. The competition will be judged by a panel of experts in the field of seismic engineering who will evaluate the designs and structures based on various criteria.
