What about a porch or canopy during an earthquake?

Canopies and Porches

Another area to consider in surveying and prepping your property is the porch or canopy. You might reinforce an irregular or large porch or canopy to keep them from separating from the main part of the building.
Consider a stronger frame or a smaller, regular shape for them when you build or renovate.
