Hati Earthquake Disaster

Hati Earthquake Disaster
It is my intent to research what type of concrete building system would be most appropriate to construct a three story multi-unit hotel building that could withstand a 7.0 magnitude earthquake in Haiti in order to bring income through tourism to benefit Haiti’s economy.

Thesis Statement

I have been working on trying to figure out an appropriate thesis question that my project will define, so here it is.

" What type of concrete building system would be most appropriate to construct a three
story multi-unit hotel building that could withstand a 7.0 magnitude earthquake in Haiti?"

the term, "most appropriate" gives several variables for the project to answer, such as: the cost of the project, the materials available, as well as the labor and equipment necessary to build it.
