1st Example of aseismic techniques around our lives.

Earthquakes are happend on the regions where over the boundaries of plates so basically we can find aseismic techniques in those countries where over the boundaries of plates such as Japan, Taiwan, Philippines and Indonesia.
We can find aseismic techniques made by those three basic ideas such as Isolated design, Endurant design, Reduced design. For example, we can find people in Japan use thin steel bars to build house because thin steel bars no need to weld by welder, therefore, there are no rough weld point around which easy to be breaken. Also, there are no big piller around those building because they only use special screw and wood and small distance between earch pilers. Thus,that are enough to prevent earthquake.
