Himachal rains: Chandigarh-Manali highway blocked at multiple places.
Blogger Friends,
Has anything like this happened to you? My June post about earthquake resistant construction in India elicited a cry for help today from a flooded part of the same country.
Here it is.

“I am from Himachal. Currently buildings have collapsed in Shimla, Manali and Mandi due to Heavy rains. I need to learn about old Earthquake Resistant Structures. Kindly help.”
I did a Google search and found out about the flooding August 14. But I am not someone who can advise about such things. All I do is share stories. I suggested trying to contact the expert in the article at his university.
I wish I could do more. All of a sudden, after posting an article that interested me, I am connected to a person in India who urgently wants my advice on earthquake resistant structures! It’s both wonderful and scary. What would you do? Have you encountered anything similar?
