A city is located in an area that has experienced 7.5-magnitude earthquakes in the past. The city is considering building a new skyscraper. Use the earthquake magnitude scale to predict the amount and type of damage residents should expect from future earthquakes of similar magnitude. Then suggest a way to minimize the effects of future earthquakes on the skyscraper.

The residents should expect collapsing parts of the building, or even the building itself would collapse if the building cannot hold/not sturdy enough for earthquakes ranging around 7.0m to 7.9m. If the building is built by hills or rocky land, expect landslides to be happening. A way effects of future earthquakes can be minimized is that the building should be constructed with sturdy material (such as steel) so that it can withstand most of the force of a 7.0-7.9m earthquake.
