Project 4: Building Codes to Protect Against Tropical Storms

Building codes are essential for ensuring that the built environment is safe during natural disasters such as tropical storms. In this project, you will choose a building type, identify a relevant guideline, and assess whether these codes should be updated, and if so, how. You will consider impact on safety, cost, relevant infrastructure, and reliability.

Further details will be provided. You will create and submit a written report.
