Abstract: Among all the disasters, earthquakes pose significant danger to the lives of people and buildings that are still under construction. The requirements argue that there is a need for hard-and-core planning to deal with impacts of earthquakes on constructions. This paper also partly focuses on the evolving of the strategies on the construction companies for the regions which are sensitive to earthquakes based on the SWOT, EFE and IFE prospective and analysis of strengths and weaknesses. The model developed in this paper is useful in helping construction companies prepare and respond to-earthquake contingencies in construction projects. This includes market information and competitor data and resources and threats, business targets and any other that relates to business legality, markets and targets. Partitions in this paper are company vision and mission, company SWOT analysis, earth-quake risks, company strategy, and company performance. However, it also discusses how to adapt for and assess SWOT, and the conditions before and after an earthquake occurs. This model will create a strong platform for the construction companies dealing with the earth-quake resistant constructions with a forecast of sustainability and preparedness. The following are the plans that were drawn to create novel strategies towards handling the responses to quakes and to extend the enterprise. Although the model can be developed farther, proper usage of resources, effective and efficient employee involvement and establishment of control over cost will improve the responses to earthquakes. The information helps to make a better protection of earthquakes in construction dealing with urging Companies to take better preparations. The paper persists in calling on the construction firms to carry on innovating their approaches in handling its earthquake.
