How would the next San Andreas 8.0 earthquake look like if it hit this 12-story tower?

This simulation was created with two add-ons for Blender 3D called "Fracture Modifier" and "Bullet Constraints Builder" developed by Kai Kostack and Martin Felke.

BCB creates realistic structural dependencies between building elements such as pillars, walls, beams, slabs etc. The tool set in conjunction with the bullet physics engine should deliver satisfactory simulation results. Kai Kostack and Martin Felke have for many years laid a solid ground work for the current development. Kai Kostack has now finished a first script version that automatically sets multiple constraints to enable several force evaluations on precise junction points between rigid objects. The script also automatically calculates the breaking threshold values for each of the constraints based on material properties.
