Should there be a law that houses have to be built to survive predictable disasters?

Should houses in Oklahoma be built to survive tornadoes up to F3?

Should houses in California be built to survive wildfires?

Should houses in Florida be built to survive hurricanes?

Pic related. These half-underground houses were very popular in the 1930s in tornado alley and a ton of them still exist.

No, we need fewer regulations on housing not more. Who gives a shit if people decide to live in a trailer in Oklahoma. That's their problem.

Living in a trailer in Oklahoma is the smartest thing to do. Cheap area, good jobs. OK is a good place to live.

That's how we all end up in commie blocks.

I will take living with tornadoes over earthquakes and volcano eruptions. Heavy ash pouring into your city blinding the sun sounds far worse. Tornadoes you can drive away from and it dissipates? Ash? Fuck no its stays for weeks.

there should be no laws dictating how you live your life. if I want to build a house with all electrical exposed it's my fucking right

Should there be a law that houses have to be built to survive predictable disasters?

No.
All laws are abused and passed to make greedy jews rich.
Show the homeowner how the homeowner benfits, not some kike owned insurance company. Give me my hobbit hole!

Should there be a law that houses have to be built to survive predictable disasters?

No, it should be encouraged but not mandated. Mandating it both increases costs by establishing licensing and permitting monopolies and stifles development of less costly methods of achieving the same level safety. When you mandate such safety features you generate a situation where poor people, instead of being able to afford a home which may face a minuscule risk of disaster, cannot afford a home at all. Stack dozens of such laws onto the books and you arrive at a situation like we have today where even middle class people cannot afford a home. As well, the laws become so labyrinthian that poor and middle class people cannot build their own home because navigating the legal hurdles is impossible. If the government wants people to add safety features to their homes, they should divert funds from their general taxation to subsidizing those safety features.

I don't know but I want an underground hobbit house. Not a shitty American one though. Mine will have a round front door.

I've seen your country. Keep enjoying your right to live like a nigger

Bro that's a basement with a roof, someone forgot to build the main floor

They had the opportunity for a round front door and they blew it.

Should there be a law that houses have to be built to survive predictable disasters?

Yes.

DESU i would 100% live in a home like that, do you have any idea how much money you can save with heating and cooling costs alone?

If i did not live in a location that has a SUPER high water table and after like 6 feet you just hit fucking rock, i would kill for a home like this.

When you mandate such safety features you generate a situation where poor people, instead of being able to afford a home which may face a minuscule risk of disaster, cannot afford a home at all.

That would be very racist. I love it. You have sold me on tough building regulations.

I hear its an ok place to live

And then it becomes your problem when the doublewide cletusniggers come clawing at your door for gibs.

Hope you got your shotty handy.

Jews trying to get more Whites killed in the next natural disaster:

should freedom be restricted for something that might not happen

No and go fuck yourself. My smoke alarm has been disabled since the first time it went off when I was making toast. I don't give a fuck about what 'might' happen if the thing providing safety is a pain in the ass.

is that house protected from flooding, or midgets?

Friendly reminded that the first little pig built his house of straw and the second little big built his house of sticks, but the third little pig built his house of bricks.

in Florida it is mandated. Florida has the most stringent building codes in the country. But most floridians are Niggers and dont maintain their house properly or they hire niggers to repair their house.

No, (((laws))) exist only to make life more miserable and to crush anyone who doesn't have millions of dollars to spare.

How about you just let people build whatever the fuck houses they want nigger

thats an eyesore

Mudflood

If I want to live in a tent and you want to send government agents with guns after me to "remove" me for "your safety", we've overstepped government and should just kill each other.
Stop playing with real Americans, government faggot.

These half-underground houses were very popular in the 1930s in tornado alley

I suspect it was because it's cooler underground?
Tornado's are still a thing but now they have HVAC.

Where I live it's also not too uncommon to have a half underground floor like that, but you always have at least one floor above it.
You get a nice stable temperature underground: cool in summer and warm in winter, and still have windows unlike a full basement.

Actually yes. New houses should be legally mandated to be built to survive extreme weather in those extreme weather zones.

It's the only way to make builders do it, even though market forces SHOULD dictate the better design winning, but due to anticompetitive practices it doesn't.
This is a rare, valid case where government intervention can fix the problem

And then your mom gets to live in fevala housing with exposed wires because that's the cheapest design not the best for humans

cutting your nose to spite your face
instead of just removing niggers you make life worse for everyone and are still surrounded by niggers

This house was made primarily from carpet scraps, compressed into walls.

Then you end up with a niggerfied country full of shipping container houses

Doesn’t it just turn to mold rapidly

That's literally what codes are, retard

White college students build these unique houses as a requirement for their architecture degrees. The walls have high thermal mass, helping to keep the house cool in the Alabama heat. It also makes them resistant to high winds but not completely tornado proof.

carpet walls.jpg - 900x510, 370.19K

Nah, fuck your economy. It doesn’t help people like me.

The black people who are given these houses are very happy to not have to live in a housing project with other people of color.

Should houses in Florida be built to survive hurricanes

they are you malcontent

Damn you're stupid

wood frame

concrete foundation

plywood walls

d-dur the walls is carpet!

No, the walls are walls and the insulation is carpet.
did you not even care to wait for a response before getting called out for your bullshit?
fucking disrespectful spamming cunt

Is America awash with trash from all the shit tornadoes pick up? How do you even clean up all that stuff?

Why the fuck would you even live in a tornado zone?

Lets be honest, white Americans should live east of Texas. Just makes the most sense.

I have no problems with the state passing policy to regulate their own houses.

..wait, if they can regulate your property, then it really isn't your property, you are just a secret renter, who has no share equity in the state, who has been programmed to lick the boot of the state authority.

Why the fuck would you even live in a tornado zone?

be in zone

live

Simple as, tard muff

Looks like shit but it's a free house.

Absolutely not and to go further insurance companies should only be able to evaluate your premium on what your own personal calculated risk factor is in an open source basis.
Even better, stop banks from requiring insurance for mortgages full stop, it's their fault if they loan money for a trailer in Oklahoma and a nader bodies it.

Based and personal responsibility-pilled. Just don't be dumb and dumb shit won't happen to you.

amerimutts will make their houses of literally everything but bricks

The stacks of carpet scraps visible from inside and outside of the house give it a unique look that is a point of pride for the residents.

My parents neighbors did that in the early 70s

oh no they actually do that? i thought for sure it would be covered. the mold stink has to be fucking incredible.

oh thats right they are houses for negros

It'd be cool if it wasn't the size of a walk in closet

Housing for under $20k is a hell of a drug.

20k.jpg - 736x352, 82.17K

They are pretty neat. The interior is just like any other small house - the windows are just further up on the walls. As for mold/water problems... These were all built in the 1930s and they're still here and being lived in and still look fine. So I guess it's not an issue where they were built.

Should houses in Florida be built to survive hurricanes?

They are, to an extent.

First, Florida is fucking huge and hurricanes are a lot smaller than the east images would have you believe. Remember when New Orleans was hit by Ida? Probably not, because it passed over neighboring Jefferson Parish so it wasn’t really in the news. It was an absolute BEAST of a hurricane but the city right next to it only lost power for like two days. Point being, hurricanes happen all the time but, generally speaking, they don’t hit the same places repeatedly because they’re not actually that big.

Hurricane likelihood is used in both statistical modeling and building codes. Terms like “500 year storm” are popular. What it actually means is that every year there’s a 1 in 500 (0.2%) chance of being hit by such a storm. Most houses near the Gulf Coast are now built to a 100 year likelihood. The destruction you see on the news is usually coastal properties demolished by storm surge (WAY above 100 year likelihood) or fucking trailers hit by tornadoes.

I’m considering something like this: archedcabinsllc.com/cabins/

It’s steel frame and if welded into supports connected to a cement foundation it’s supposed to be wind rated to 175 mph. Would still not survive an F5, and also debris can still shred the room even if it’s rated for the wind though. But seems like a better option that stick frame balsa wood house design.

Those carpet scraps are probably so permeated with formaldehyde that nothing could grow in them.

Should houses in California be built to survive wildfires?

Earthquakes are the bigger threat. Building houses to survive earthquakes leaves them susceptible to wildfires.

Fucking Namekians. Go back!

What about building to survive chimp-outs?

Monolithic concrete domes are tornado proof and the most energy efficient. They are also bulletproof.

cutting your nose to spite your face

That's a strange way to describe living in a safe home and pricing niggers out of the market. By all means create an environment where the housing is low quality and affordable to all. You'll even provide jobs for niggers if they don't need to read and write well enough to follow the code. Maybe you can have one come round to fix the roof after every storm and fuck your wife while he's there. I assume that's your plan for your dirt cheap house. So you can afford a trade wife fantasy where she fucks niggers all day while you work to pay the mortgage at rates even detritus of society can afford.

There are laws like that

Lol

Underhill?

And then your mom gets to live in fevala housing with exposed wires because that's the cheapest design not the best for huma

so what, why do faggots like you always care about how I choose to live?

Holy shit. I'm clearly losing this thread. It's been careful designed to equate building good homes with being weird designs and nigger friendly. I can't complete with this level of Jewish subversion. I guess I should remind you that pricing niggers out of the market is a time honoured tradition of your forefathers and leave people to make up their own minds.

Impossible. You can't build a house to withstand a direct nuclear strike.

This is a recognised policy issue because there are three different standards all in conflict
The first is material efficiency, the drive to conserve building materials, not waste them, and not build things which are a waste of them.
The second is peak capitol return, the financial point that building returns profit.
The third is peak tendency demand, someone who needs a tent, sleeps in a car, would live in a shed to avoid paying rent, who would live in a collapsing building.
Fourth is local living standards, the NIMBY factor. People who don't want homeless people on their front lawn, fire trap buildings in their suburb, or the poor anywhere in sight.

And so it's a genuine political problem.
Banks hold the levers on printing money, the government has basically no control on anything but migration, local governments control building, tenants decide where they live

I'm clearly losing this thread. I

Clearly

Should houses in Florida be built to survive hurricanes?

The ones I worked on were. Not going to say they all are.

Hardly. I think women should be expected to contribute to the mortgage in this modern world and do female appropriate jobs like kindergarten teacher so they don't get up to mischief during the day. Better to have a genuinely conservative wife instilling good values in the community that being some sort of fake Christian TikTok whore like that Mormon Disney+ nonsense YouTube keeps pushing. And you'll have a nicer home in a neighborhood that trash can't afford that'll be a quality asset to leave for your kids rather than a money pit needing constant repairs.

Have fun being bamboozled from both sides, goyim.

1100 square feet and 4 acres

1100 square feet

Oof

There are common measures taken to address the issue:

You make an emergency services levy funded from land tax. It's not always worth protecting every individual home, you invest in the fire brigade, you invest in a local shelter. The problem comes when the poor say they can't afford the levy, their "stake" in the property market is a tent, and try to use emergency funds as a piggy bank for homeless services.
Left wing governments will break such right wing piggy banks every single time.

Building codes are the middle class preference, more in line with material costs, they won't let a billionaire invest in some five story abomination and won't let homeless families move into demountables and vans. But trying to stop over investment is diminishing returns, if investors can't build extra stories they'll triple glaze, build stone walls, underground garages, the material waste gets stupid. And the rich will buy a greater number of homes, the middle class would much rather the poor payed the rich excessive rent.

The poor man's view of deregulation, land grabs, self building, quickly creates a materials shortage, is a humanitarian disaster waiting to happen, and doesn't drive investment.

mudflood hypothesis

Some areas simply can't be built on because the soil is liable to liquify.
Landlords love this nice flat land where things seem to grow, is not floodplain, and they will spend millions on national level cope science about how building more things on that soil can stabilise it.

And the fourth little pig built his in the ground because he lived in Nebraska
