Applications can be submitted to the relevant municipalities and other institutions in this regard. After the application, the government officers come and check the building and direct them to specialist companies for a more detailed examination of the building. As a result of the examination, if there is a risky situation in the building, a report is prepared. These tests are done as the regulation changes. The 2018 earthquake code is currently in effect. Before that, there was the 2007 earthquake regulation, before that there was the 1999 regulation, and before that there was the 1975 regulation. After each earthquake, a new earthquake regulation comes out to make up for the deficiency of the previous one. Currently, the 2018 earthquake regulation is in effect and the buildings must be constructed according to this regulation. If you have a positive report for your building in previous earthquakes, after a new earthquake, you can talk to the specialist from whom you received that report. It is possible to find out whether the area you live in and your house are at risk of earthquakes through the e-government system.
