Description: The recent 7.2 magnitude earthquake shook Taiwan, leaving widespread devastation in its path. Amidst the chaos, one structure stood resilient: Taipei 101, formerly the world's tallest skyscraper. <br/> <br/>While countless buildings succumbed to the tremors, Taipei 101's survival can be attributed to its innovative design, featuring a massive steel orb known as a tuned mass damper. This architectural marvel, constructed with a combination of reinforced concrete and steel, enabled the skyscraper to sway with the seismic waves without suffering any damage. <br/> <br/> <br/>#TaiwanEarthquake #Taipei101 #SkyscraperSurvival #TunedMassDamper #GoldenSphere #SeismicResilience #BuildingSafety #TaiwanTremor #StructuralStrength #EarthquakeEngineering<br/>~HT.178~PR.152~ED.101~GR.125~
