So sad. As someone who lived for a few years in Turkey for work I’m not surprised by the devastation. The building codes are not up to snuff for an earthquake zone and corruption in the building trades has resulted in many buildings not up to the codes that do exist in Turkey. This is so gut wrenching to see and my heart goes out to all the victims.

I feel like earthquake is getting stronger and closer to each other in resent years. All countries need to adapt japanese building code. Better be safe than sorry. Our country also have met numerous small earthquakes last year. It was more than i have experienced in my life in single year. Such big apartments house so many people. Buildings are getting taller and taller , almost no safety space in between. There is just no time to run out of 16 store buildings during earthquake or fire! Specially in corrupted countries buildings barely follow their own building code. Much worse would happen if 7.8 magnitude were to hit our country. I imagine 70 percent of whole city collapsing with quality of buildings i see . They are only flashy inside with marble lobbies,but structure itself is cheap af. Government and building companies are only looking for todays profit. People are buying such mediocre apartments with all their savings without knowing the danger.

7.8 on the Richter scale is absolutely insane. Not many people know but the scale is logarithmic so 7.8 is actully 10 times worse than 6.8 and has 33 times the energy. Scary stuff!
