Balancing on a Single column

Most modern buildings generally have more than one column each going down till the foundation base. However single column based structures have a wide range of applications which may partially offset its disadvantages. Find out the working procedure, advantages and limitations along with a general idea about such single column buildings

A four way intersection

Traffic jams at most intersections in India is a common sight. Excluding well developed areas of Metros most intersections are associated with a lot of commotion. Your task is to find out possible solutions for this problem and their efficiency with respect to capital, traffic density and feasibility. Out of the box ideas would be welcomed and appreciated

Assembly line Houses

Let the tremors begin

Quite a few major cities fall under high risk zones as far as earthquakes are concerned. Your task is to find out the construction practices used to safeguard structures against the ground vibrations and get a brief idea about them. Divide the techniques with respect to height of the structure. Also provide a unique solution to protect structures against this natural force (No need to limit yourself; sometimes the weirdest ideas lead to the best inventions)
