Iron earthquake bolts form crosses on the exterior of a home on East Bay Street, April 5, 2015, in Charleston, South Carolina. Many historic buildings in the city were damaged and destroyed by an earthquake in 1886. Iron rods bolt the masonry to the framework and the ends are connected by a decorative gib plate, or anchor plate, often in the shape of crosses or stars. (Photo by Carmen K. Sisson/Cloudybright)
