I'm not sure this is the good place to ask those questions. Sorry if it isn't.

Are there studies that evaluated the resistance of buildings against tsunami ? What kind of buildings could manage a tsunami with waves of 30 meters ? or a mega tsunami with waves of 100 meters ?

Are underground buildings safe in those cases ?

Is the potential of destruction directly linked to the height of waves on the shore ?

Here is a PDF that addresses tsunami structural forces in quantitative detail. Covered are hydrostatic, buoyant, hydrodynamic, surge, impact and breaking wave forces.
