Diagram showing a strain seismograph with two piers connected by a rod. Three panels illustrate the rod's position during no seismic activity, compressional wave activity (rod moves closer to pier 1), and stretching wave activity (rod and pier 2 move away from pier 1), demonstrating how changes in distance measure seismic waves.
