Surviving A Hurricane: A Hurricane-Resistant Construction Solution

A team of Simpson Strong-Tie engineers visited Northwestern Florida to check on customers and assess the damage to homes caused by Hurricane Michael. After speaking with homeowners, contractors and engineers, common failure modes were identified.
Florida-based engineers and contractors who use Simpson Strong-Tie products explain the importance of following the enhanced building codes to build and retrofit safer, stronger homes for the future. Fortifying a home for high wind events is not just an option for new construction, older homes can be retrofitted to be hurricane resistant as well.
