German expert: Building Standards Essential

According to him, a strong earthquake affects the tension of the terrain in the vicinity of the quakes. Where tensions arise on earth, other earthquakes, so - called successive earthquakes, may occur. Over the next few days, activity is generally reduced quite quickly, but it may also be that activity will be renewed, especially when successive earthquakes are strong.

The productivity of instability is different in various earthquakes, he says, and the earthquake in Albania has caused a large number of subsequent earthquakes due to the magnitude. Unfortunately, there's no way to talk for sure about anything Tillman says, but it can only be given statistical data.

Speaking of a 10cm rise of land near Durres, Tilman says an earthquake causes a contraction of the ground that in this case leads to the rise of the earth's surface. In other lands, there may be a slight landing, but the rise of the surface is prevalent in such types. In millions of years of geology, the effects of thousands of earthquakes lead to mountain creation, such as dinarides.

Taking Japan's example as the most endangered country in earthquakes, the German professor says that the country took many measures, especially set strict building standards, becoming one of the world's most prepared countries in the face of earthquakes. Albania, being one of the most endangered areas in Europe, must take steps to build or fortify residences so that they do not collapse by earth's strong quakes.
