Coastal Construction Manual (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781410210388)

This manual provides guidance for the design and construction of coastal residential structures able to resist damage from flood, wind, and erosion hazards. Included herein are discussions of new residential structures - principally detached single-family, attached single-family (townhouse), and low-rise (three-story or less) multifamily houses. Non-residential structures of similar sizes, loads, and construction can also be considered by interpreting the data and procedures found in this manual, as can retrofitting of existing structures.
