FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: quakeproof building includes upper floors, a support board with slots, a foundation and intermediate elements. The foundation is arranged as a platform that is made of upper and lower boards with cavities, inside of which there are intermediate elements of a ball-like shape. The boards are installed relative to each other with a gap, and cavities have parallel horizontal surfaces in transverse and longitudinal directions with half-spheric ends.
