  Author(s): Porzionato Andrea*
  
  Resilient construction practices play a crucial role in mitigating the impact of natural disasters and increasing the ability of buildings and infrastructure to withstand such events. By incorporating specific design principles, materials and technologies, resilient construction practices aim to reduce damage, enhance safety and expedite recovery in the aftermath of disasters. Resilient construction practices not only reduce the potential for property damage and loss of life but also contribute to the long-term sustainability and resilience of communities. By integrating these strategies into construction projects, we can create safer and more resilient built environments that are better equipped to withstand and recover from the impacts of natural disasters and other hazards...
