DR houses seem to be built solidly although not us much as buildings in poland with foundations about 2 meters deep (we have basements). however, i do not think that an individual in DR can use technologies that will make his house earthquake proof - due to expense and lack of availability. when tremor is very strong (say, 8.0 or more) you can only pray.
