Question

I want a cool science fair project on destruction management?

Answer 1

Well a good one and one relevant to today is how earthquake resistant structures are built. You can research how Japan and places in California (and others) have designed buildings that can withstand shaking. You can even make small scale models and shake them to illustrate their effectiveness. Be sure to talk about how shoddy building codes lead to massive loss of life. Maybe do a side by side shaking of a reinforced model and one that isn't.
