This document discusses the benefits of building homes out of reinforced concrete to increase resistance to hurricanes and tornadoes. It provides several examples where concrete homes withstood storms while nearby wood homes were destroyed. Researchers found concrete walls can withstand flying debris better than other materials. Specifically, monolithic dome homes and those made with insulating concrete forms performed well. The technology for building reinforced concrete homes to resist storms was originally developed over 50 years ago on Guam to withstand typhoons. The document encourages learning more about building hurricane resistant concrete homes.
