The invention concerns an earthquake-proof device for buildings and engineered constructions characterised in that it comprises pre-stressed cables (A1, A2, B ...) fixed at one of their ends to a ground structure (22) supporting the building or construction and at their other end to a high storey structure (24) of the building or construction, said cables (A1, A2, B ...) being stretched along an optimised curve by calculation based on the structural features of the building or construction, the cable being stretched in a plane passing through the horizontal displacement direction which needs to be limited.
