7th Grade has almost completed construction on their earthquake resistant building. Outside of a few minor set-backs 7th grade never stopped building. They have done an excellent job and have a solid building design.

Hard at work

 

They have reinforced the concrete walls with steel hangers and isolated the second story floor from the rest of the building. They also came up with a unique shock absorbing system on the outside of the walls.
