5:32 pm
the kathmandu valley has a 300 deep meter layer of clay reflecting and focussing seismic waves within the valley, and the region is prone to soil liquidisation, which causes solid ground to turn into quick sand, which can swallow buildings and roads and cause more damage. >> where earthquakes occur and how often they occur - that helps to plan accordingly, so it's possible to conduct buildings that minimises the amount of damage and it's possible for communities to be more resilient if they are aware of the possibility of this happening. now there are aftershock, and 55 of these five plus magnitude quakes can be expected in the area over the next few cause or weeks. there has been landslides triggered by the quakes others
