In November 2017, a disruptive earthquake occurred in Western Iran. After the major earthquake in Kermanshah, most affordable buildings such as a hospital in Islamabad and a dozen schools were destroyed. According to experts, a dangerous location (construction on the fault), poor quality of concrete, inappropriate connection of the facade to the structure, the use of undesirable construction materials, and low quality of non-structural components are considered as the main reasons for these damages. Regarding the role of government in the developing countries, construction policies should be modified and new policies should be implemented to enhance the structural and non-structural resilience in the buildings.
2017 年 11 月，伊朗西部发生了一次破坏性地震。克尔曼沙阿大地震后，大多数经济适用房，如伊什卡曼德市的一家医院和十几所学校都被摧毁了。据专家称，造成这些破坏的主要原因是危险的地理位置（在断层上施工）、混凝土质量差、外墙与结构连接不当、使用不合规的建筑材料以及非结构部件质量差。关于政府在发展中国家的作用，应修改建筑政策并实施新政策，以提高建筑物的结构和非结构弹性。
