Is retrofitting buildings the best method and a good way for humans to face earthquakes in the fault areas of the earth's crust?

The retrofitting technique using base isolation has large isolated buildings in Armenia and Japan, which is one of the highest potentials for the reconstruction of conventional civil structures in the world. As apartment blocks and vital facilities such as schools, it is second only to hospitals globally. Since 1995, 56 buildings and structures in Armenia have been designed using base or roof insulation systems. From these designed buildings, the total number of built buildings. Among them there are bathrooms, private residences, school buildings, clinic and hospital buildings, business centers, hotels and apartment buildings. The number of seismic occupants, along with that, SILRSBs of different shapes and dimensions as well as with damping (low, medium and high) were designed and more than 5000 SILRSBs were produced and tested locally and used in construction. they got . In the country of Iran, the techniques of removing bricks and replacing them with unilite, strengthening the foundation, using keystones, correct concreting, and placing reinforced and lightweight concrete in buildings. Also using thick beams. Its width and thickness are basic and strong, and in the walls, reinforcement in the cross walls and lightening and flexibility have been used. But the way of improving and strengthening the floors of buildings, which is the isolation and strengthening of the floors of buildings, is still not used in Iran, and this is a big defect in the country of Iran, so that during earthquakes and danger, like in Japan and Armenia, the buildings are isolated and low And the bottoms of the columns have pistons and divergents for the impact, so that during an earthquake, our clocks will play on the pistons and pistons and prevent falls.
