Cora Osborn · Answer 1

You can use wood and steel because you want it to with stand the wind (seismic waves)

Adolfo Montes · Answer 2

Wood and steel have more give than stucco, unreinforced concrete, or masonry, and they are favored materials for building in fault zones. Skyscrapers everywhere must be reinforced to withstand strong forces from high winds, but in quake zones, there are additional considerations.
