On a global scale, most earthquake casualties are the result of non-engineered buildings (N-EBs) collapsing in developing regions of the world. This is because developing countries present the unfortunate combination of high population densities, lack of resources, corruption, and a lack of design and construction knowhow needed in seismic regions. Over the last decades, a significant research effort has been dedicated to introducing low-cost seismic protection strategies that could be implemented on a large scale in developing regions of the world. This paper presents those state-of-the-art technologies. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the many available systems, and underline the characteristics of these technology, to expand the range of applicability of each system, and to contribute to its state of development.
