With a magnitude of 6.7 on the Richter scale, the Northridge Earthquake devastated significant parts of the San Fernando Valley, including homes, apartments, and freeways. Soft-story buildings, lacking adequate bracing to resist lateral forces, were particularly vulnerable. During earthquakes, horizontal ground movement poses the most significant risk, potentially causing these buildings to collapse due to inadequate support.

To prevent future tragedies like the one etched in our memories, it's crucial to retrofit compromised buildings, reducing the risk of casualties and making our communities safer. Let's work together to ensure a safer future for all.
