      Building materials play a crucial role in creating disaster-resilient structures. In areas prone to earthquakes, for example, using materials with high tensile strength, such as reinforced concrete and steel, can help buildings withstand seismic forces. In hurricane-prone regions, impact-resistant windows and reinforced roofing materials are essential for protecting against strong winds. Additionally, fire-resistant materials, such as gypsum board and fire-rated glass, are vital for minimizing the spread of fires. By incorporating these materials into construction projects, builders can enhance the resilience of buildings and reduce the risk of damage during natural disasters.
