Round House - Hurricane Proof

Deltec's record against damage from high wind speaks for itself. We have been building hurricane-resistant homes for almost 40 years and have never lost a home to high winds of any kind. Recently we have seen a dramatic increase of hurricane activity in the Gulf and Atlantic. In 2005, many of our homes were put to the ultimate test when Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast. None of the homes in her path suffered any structural damage from high winds. A few homes were hit by 20-30 foot tidal surges and winds over 145 mph and still incurred no structural damage.

wtf is with the almost subliminal music ???

Oh, that's right...it's an AD to SELL houses.

Depends what you make the frame and roof from. Steel or aluminum framing would make it extremely strong, and hurricane-proof windows can stop 2'X4's thrown at them.

ok, what if a car falls on it? Or maybe a house, falls on this one?

I believe it's wind proof, but not the detrit wind brings

Its a beautiful thing this house can take such a beating and not even show a scar. Looks like a fantastic house.

I would not recommend staying through a hurricane for the over looked fact that all the utilities are gone and the sewage waste is usually all over the place. The other waste can also be dangerous. This is why authorities will not allow people to return so soon to determine that it IS safe.
