Why people don't build concrete houses over there ? Here, in Kerala, India, we build only concrete houses, with concrete roofs ! No one builds a wooden house here anymore. Concrete houses may be hot in summer but they survive our heavy monsoon.
They actually build a lot of concrete block houses in Florida, but yeah it all comes down to wood building being cheaper and most builders in the USA know this trade best.
During military duty in Orlando Florida I was just coming home from the doctor finding out I was going to have a child i remember saying if it's a girl I'd give her this name and if it's a boy I'm going to call him Andrew Michael not knowing about hurricanes yet being from Michigan. That's day i remember seeing a massive cloud coming in and they named the hurricane Andrew i said message received God. Thank God I was graced with a daughter and a son both like freight trains. Daughter runs a military operation and son is at Space Force. ALL glory to God always! Thank you God for the opportunity to raise them into great leaders with the father we had the opportunity to grow. Space Force you're going to need to be on your toes with him. Raised them to be incorruptible and obedient to the ten commandments. I apologize for the tangent this video triggered a good memory out of a chaotic situation. Order out of chaos.
That very nice home and done the right way... The problem the home people went a cheap labor and cheap home.... Look at northern Virginia area big million dollars homes that are nothing but junk.. People also don't think about lightning and fire protection.... I had a very good friend of mine had a house build out of percast and very thing was done right but the bad thing the people who build the home had to come from out of state because the local builders and local individuals didn't know how to design a home like that.... The problem is finding engineer and individuals know what their doing....
Unfortunately anyone rebuilding a single story house on a slab is throwing away money. The next storm surge will just knock it down and drag it away again. From now on , the first floor needs to be designed as the sacrifice zone. Won’t be long anyway before the insurance companies require it for coverage, if they’ll cover it at all.
Has anyone ever thought of asking the storm gods for protection from storms and guide the hurricane rather than just accept the hit? There's this dude named God can protect you if you ask for protection so humans can tend the planet and nature rather than rape the planet of resources without giving anything back. When that happens the karmic wheel must balance the outcome.
How come no one talks about installing fortified shutters over your windows and their patio doors ? Such a simple solution .
I'd be depressed if I'd put all that into making my house hurricane proof and still needed 6 figures to fix it.

every other country builds in concrete, except in the US, it's the cost, lumber wood is cheap and available.
@@moexus compressed laminated lumber could be a good alternative. Strong as concrete but half the cost.

All homes should be concrete and steel only.

God gets all of the blame and none of the credit.
Same
God? What's that? xd
Does God pay your rent? 😊😂🤣😅😁
@@oneviwatara9384 He definitely helps.
@@oneviwatara9384 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Is there an update? How’d it hold up in Ian?
Ian was no where close to where Michael hit. Michael hit the panhandle.
Just took a drone photo of that house the other day.
Here's an idea, don't build on the ocean in a hurricane zone..
21st century in the world, Americans are starting to build houses out of concrete. Wow!
Would the home have survived with Hurricane Ian, Oct 2022/
It did. Minor damage
Nowhere near where it hit, can't say til the Panhandle gets another
