Mess is one way of putting it. I remember the devastation that Hurricane Ida left in New Orleans. But Hurricane Ian tripled the devastation in Florida. From some of the videos I've seen it wiped out whole residences with nothing left but the concrete foundations where homes had set. Seems with global warming storms become more often and more powerful.
Yeah....but also the buildings are 99% made of cartoon and wood in some areas...
Here you cannot see some like this, all buildings (houses) have super hard concrete foundation, high resistance concrete floors and hard concrete structure, hard bricks between concrete...
So...is also about how the area was built...In USA a lot are made in a manner that here will be probably considered "junk houses" as it have walls of rigips and small wood sheet filled with mineral wool...
I do not understand why they do not learn....make a house using B350 concrete and 15x40 bricks, bazaltic wool fixed properly, and will not have issues even at 250 km/h wind...
I give a small example:
My house is 3 floors height....have a foundation of concrete and steel at 5 meters deep burried in ground, concrete is >1 meter thickness....all floors stay on 14 pillars of super hard concrete and steel of 25x25cm thick, all concrete floors with steel reinforced, walls are made of concrete and bricks and each wall have 50cm thickness+ 10cm bazaltic wool double anchored in wall...Made for earthquake up to 8.7 Richter...So...when you do a lifetime work, do it properly....not just using thick cartoon and wool and at first powerful wind you see is gone...
