The use of reinforced concrete for buildings and better protected steel columns. There were only a few buildings that were constructed that way and they fared very well in the earthquake and fire. The USGS reported this in their 1907 report and photographs from it can be viewed at my web site, America Hurah. http://americahurrah.com/USGS/Intro.htm
