Severe weather has significantly changed the way we look at design and construction of our buildings—from commercial to residential. Weather has become more volatile as natural disasters have taken their toll on our architecture. Naturally, no matter where you’re designing from, it’s become a topic of conversation when restoring and creating new buildings.
With this in mind, owners have been thinking more consistently about risk. Risk to their buildings, risk of natural disasters and risk of not protecting their buildings from those disasters. Due to this, owners are thankfully becoming more educated about the construction process and specific measures that are available to ensure properties are protected against severe weather.
