Designs that resist tremors
SUNGAI SIPUT: The Work Ministry wants engineers to incorporate tremor-resistant designs in high-rise buildings, Minister Datuk Seri S. Vellu said.
He said the ministry would ask the Board of Engineers to consider such a feature as tremors were occurring in the country quite frequently.
"We cannot keep quiet. We have to think of Penang, Port Klang and all the west coast towns that might be affected by the tremors," he said.
