It is quite clear from all of this that insurance companies are in no hurry to issue insurance policies to strengthen buildings against earthquakes of various types, unless different conditions are set, based on a risk analysis performed by surveyors on their behalf.

Sometimes, the project involves excavations under or near the structure, which is an unusual risk from the insurance companies' perspective. However, the main and problematic characteristic of
