Anti-seismic(?) building = expensive, complicated, elitist, until today.
Vs.
Gravity = anti-seismic(!), economical, simple, affordable, as of today.

Nicoletta's lecture:
Gravity explained to her children
RO Guiltless Plastic Award 2022 (Milan, June 2022).
Nicoletta Orlandi Brugnoni explains to her children
how Gravity works and how it withstands earthquakes.
The best explanation ever!
Thank you, Nicoletta ! (watch the subtitled video)

Sussultatory or undulatory earthquakes ? Seismic vertical or horizontal ground motions ?
Gravity - The Moving Wall: the more you shake it, the more you fix it !
We have always considered a "wall" as a united and solid block,
an artefact that, once in place, is a single piece that resists any thrust
with the resistance and strength of the binders between its elements.
Throughout history, we have always fought earthquakes by reinforcing these binders.
Gravity - The Moving Wall reverses this approach to the earthquake problem
Sussultatory earthquakes (seismic vertical ground motions) are the most devastating.
Vertical thrusts destroy buildings of any kind, testing both strength and elasticity.
Both resistance and resilience of structures show their limits.
Powerful quakes will succeed in breaking down any structure.
Gravity will prevent this problem by creating a structure already broken,
the way we want, driving these forces.
Undulatory earthquakes (seismic horizontal ground motions) are less devastating
but much more common.
Resilience of the load-bearing structures may be a partial solution,
but the structure's resilience is hampered by the rigidity of the internal infill walls.
There were no "flexible" walls.
Until today.

This site illustrates an invention,
an anti-seismic construction technique
that will question the way of looking
at things used so far;
without taking anything away,
just adding a different perspective.
Welcome to the world of Gravity!
Gravity - The Moving Wall,
a patented revolution
Gravity is an anti-seismic construction technique patented in Italy and Europe, China, Australia and New Zealand,
filed in the USA, Russia, India, Canada,
and many other countries.
Also, the industrial models are protected, as well as the G in rhomboid shape and the brands "Gravity" and "The Moving Wall".
Gravity
is a new way to face earthquakes.
"It's never been done before !"
True, and this may be
a good starting point !
Since ever, we consider that a "wall"
must be a solid and compact block...
Sure ?

As far as possible, the graphic choices of this site,
such as avoiding justified alignments
or breaking a line after each concept,
they have been made to try to help those who, without any guilt,
have always to start two squares behind the others.
