Very tall buildings have a better chance of surviving a quake. The vibrations get spread out along the tall structure and it will sway more. Buildings around 3-6 stories are more likely to sustain damage during a quake. or you could make a huge ass one story building. tape major connections of the building such as aroudn the roof and floor. and also otehr important areas. make hte outside strong and the inside should stay pretty good. my $0.02
