wow
i believe i can build a wood frame house that is tornado proof
your shingles would blow off
windows would break
but the framing would still be there
Simpson Strong Tie products & foundation anchors are the key
effective wind bracing in walls, & roof bracing Don't give me that BS...Engineers are paid to use those. All they are is a Fn money grab. Sorry for the folks that lost their chit How many structures have you built ?

Simpson Strong Tie products & foundation anchors are the key
effective wind bracing in walls, & roof bracing Never seen anything that could stand up to an EF4 or EF5 tornado. I remember looking at pics of where houses had been in the aftermath of the powerful F5 that his Jerrall, Tx in 1997. On some of the slab houses the only thing left were a few plumbing stub outs. No base plates, no wall remnant ... nothing. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.kxan.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/40/2022/05/The-Last-F5-Weather-Special-Digital.00_16_21_04.Still006-e1653073529234.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://s.w-x.co/wu/double-creek-damage-632px.jpg) I'll take a hurricane any day over tornados!

Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.
