What do Ridgecrest, CA and Japan have in common? They both make up half of this episode. We talk with Maria Mohammed, a structural engineer in California about her experience surveying the damage from the July 4th Ridgeway earthquake. After that we discuss a bit about Japanese seismic code, and why it might just be better than ours.
