Is Le Petit Trianon built by Willis Polk an Earthquake proof building?

Le Petit Trianon, designed by Willis Polk and completed in 1910, is not specifically classified as an earthquake-proof building. While it incorporates some features typical of the period's construction methods, such as brick and reinforced concrete, it does not meet modern seismic standards. Earthquake resilience requires specific engineering techniques that were not common in early 20th-century architecture. Therefore, while it may withstand minor tremors, it is not designed to be earthquake-proof.
