Why are there glass skyscrapers in earthquake territory?
In San Francisco, the Salesforces building has many glass windows. Won’t the glass break during an earthquake and fall on pedestrians on the street. Do engineers expect the glass not to break during an earthquake?

Im not familiar with this type of stuff but if i had to assume there is most likely a glass made to resist the force of the earthquake. They definitely wouldnt create a skyscraper like that there without thinking of such precautions.
