Common Questions

1
What are the seismic zones in India?

India is divided into four seismic zones: Zone II (Low), Zone III (Moderate), Zone IV (High), and Zone V (Very High risk).

2
What is the "Importance Factor" (I)?

The importance factor accounts for the critical nature of the building. Hospitals and schools usually have I=1.5, while standard residential buildings have I=1.0.
