Houses and Cyclone Yasi

The Cyclone Testing Station has been looking into the performance of houses that were in the path of Cyclone Yasi. Initial reports indicate that homes designed to the latest codes survived reasonably well. In some areas, the storm surge created some havoc. Once again garage doors are coming under some scrutiny.

You can keep up with the reports from CTS at www.jcu.edu.au/cts and clicking on "News and Information". A Technical alert has already been prepared in regard to Roller Doors. You can check out the Technical Alerts at  www.jcu.edu.au/cts/tech_alerts/index.htm.
