In today’s world, we are heartrending towards globalization as a result of which the basic necessities of day to day life are bound to improve. Same practice is implementing through spectacular means of transportation of different places by providing flyovers, tunnels, subways etc. Because of urbanization, though these rudiments have become the necessity, we are going against nature. We are constantly disturbing the earth crust to facilitate these privileges. These facilities of today may cause some harmful defects to our coming generation by means of destruction through Earthquakes, Tsunami etc. Some measures should be takes in such a way that this progress should also not stop and simultaneously, the destructions should also not harm the lives. As an Architect, my aim of this paper is to enlighten the basic necessities and recommendations for framed structures which can hold a particular rector of earthquake without destruction.
