Earthquake Proof Rental Properties in Tokyo

Apartments & Houses with higher Tolerance against Earthquakes

Within Tokyo, there are many condominium apartments and detached houses that have undergone earthquake resistance strengthening modifications or were built utilizing special earthquake resistant structures. 

Here is a selection of earthquake resistant rental properties utilizing seismic isolation structure, damping structure, 2x4 structure or another form of earthquake resistant reinforcement. Some of these properties have disaster prevention measures such as having a water well, stocking emergency supplies (food, blankets, first aid), and more in place.

Seismic Isolation structure Base Isolation Structure

Seismic Isolation Structure works by stopping the motion generated by earthquakes from reaching the building. This is done by inserting isolators, such as laminated rubber, into the foundation of the building. This form of earthquake resistance is capable of reducing the impact of an earthquake on a building to as little as 1/3 to 1/5 (less than half) of what other earthquake resistant structures will experience.
