Remember to use hurricane straps on the roofs, hurricane straps are your best investment for your wood/zinc roof.
@JAMAICAWITHIRIE
@JAMAICAWITHIRIE Ай бұрын
Well, I'm afraid it's not that simple. What I've discovered having witnessed a lot of torn roofs in St.Elizabeth and other parishes - hurricane straps actually made the situation much worse in some cases. In general, hurricane straps can help by strengthening the connections between different parts of a building, making the structure more resistant to high winds. However, in a Category 4 hurricane (over 130 mph) - there are instances where the presence of hurricane straps can lead to more extensive damage. Without straps, roofing materials like zinc may be blown away, leaving the wooden frame intact for easier repair. With straps, the entire wooden frame can be blown off along with the roof, sometimes even pulling pieces of concrete from the walls! For wooden/plywood houses - hurricane straps are a no-no during the hurricane, as this is how the full house is destroyed - the hurricane can't lift up the roof, so it simply breaks all the walls, leaving foundation only. Therefore, while hurricane straps generally increase structural integrity in high winds and are must in Jamaica due to tropical storms, in extreme conditions, they can lead to greater overall damage if the structure fails. That's why the solution has to be way more complex, starting from the roof shape/design, type of roofing material, type of eave etc.

That's assuming the rest of the building is strong enough. There are homes in New England US that are hundreds of years old because they were built well surviving blizzards year after year. In Florida old wooden structures have survived cat 5 hurricanes. Id like to know how the dome houses in St Thomas did? They are strong and cheaper to build, but people are reluctant to use the design because they don't like the aesthetics.

@JAMAICAWITHIRIE Ай бұрын
​@@waitaminute2015 can you share some links to the wooden houses that are 100 y.o.+ that survived the hurricane winds please? I've been trying to find at least some, but couldn't. New England is not a good example, I'm afraid, as it never has any hurricanes, while Blizzards are usually around 35 Mph winds, with maximum gusts of around 60 mph. This cannot compare to a Category 4 hurricane winds which start FROM 130 mph...

​@@JAMAICAWITHIRIEWell, New England did, in fact, experience a hurricane, Gloria in 1985. My family migrated to Connecticut (which is technically a part of New England, but it's a bit complicated as the part of the state where I grew up is closer to NYC than to what is regarded as New England proper) from Jamaica and as a child I remember when the hurricane touched down. I was shocked to discover that Gloria was a Category 4.

​@@serialwriteher2467 Hurricane Gloria was indeed Cat 4 hurricane, but only when it was in the Bahamas. By the time it reached New England - it had weakened significantly, so it was a powerful storm, but not a hurricane. For more info see here: www.weather.gov/mhx/Sep271985EventReview

The homes that are build according to code are still standing. if only people stop taking chances when building their homes in Jamaica and just FOLLOW the building codes. They must use hurricane straps on the roofs and DO NOT build houses at low line or at sea level. The ancestors knew what they were doing when they build in the hills. My family is from St. Elizabeth but they moved to the hills of Clarendon in the 1800s. It's the best thing they did.

Breds Foundation actually works with these very same families. I mentioned this fact in my video at 16:55... The reason you don't see me riding on a truck handing out a few pieces of zinc to the communities you've mentioned is because I have dignity. What youtubers like Colaz are doing has nothing to do with providing real help to people, but everything to do with exploiting the tragedy to make popular content and promote his youtube channel at the expense of the most vulnerable communities. If it's hard to understand why, just answer a simple question - how would you feel if some stranger came into your house and was sticking a camera in your face when you hadn't even had a chance to take a proper shower for a week or put fresh clothes on? AND you had to feel grateful to him, because.. well, he brought a piece of zinc that you didn't even have tools nor skills to install. Sure, help to others should be promoted in order to encourage donations and involvement, but it requires professional and sensitive approach. Exposing people who are already suffering, just like some youtubers do for the sake of gaining views is just awful! This is why you see my video the way it is, and if there is a moment I personally decide to help anyone, I'll make sure my camera is turned OFF.

It's a regulation for any official donations/collecting of donations to prevent money laundry etc. Having said that, I still find their way of accepting payments is quite simple - simply provide your name/address and use credit card online to pay on their site. When you go to their site bredsfoundation.org and then click "Tax Deductible Donation" - you will be taken to American friends of Jamaica website, where you can enter your name and card to make a payment.

it's common in Jamaica to have a concrete house. Roofs can vary. Many people have concrete flat roofs and many who can't afford proper roof - do zinc roofs. However, we also have proper metal and tile roofs. I don't see wooden roofs in Jamaica, but the roof frame is usually made of wood.

Actually, the government is involved on many levels. They have their on fundraiser going and they are also collaborating with NCB foundation. They help with Treasure Beach, but their focus is beyond just Treasure Beach area for understandable reasons. Their priorities are also very different, e.g. who is going to restore 212 schools that were damaged during the hurricane? Not a single private fundraiser can handle that, so the government should be doing that. However, making a video about how the government is helping would not work, because if the government is not doing a good job - people will blame me for opposition propaganda. If the government is doing a good job - people will blame me for being a "sell out".

People should also take responsibility for not following building code and took that chance. There were houses with no steel and no hurricane straps. This could have been avoided if everyone followed building code

It is easy to blame the government for everything! The people are part of the government. We need to stop blaming and put hearts and hands together to restore. God's speed to the ones trying to rebuild and not adding negativity.

Exactly - hurricane ties, also called hurricane clips and hurricane straps, are metal connectors with holes for fasteners, such as nails or screws. The roofers should be using these hurricane ties to reinforce the connection between the roof truss and the wall plate.' Outside of this another disater and the same thing happens again!!!

what are you talking about? When you use "YTs" - do you refer to "white people" or "youtubers"? In any case, not sure how your comment is relevant to this video. Just in case it wasn't clear from the accent - the people shown in this video have never moved to Jamaica, they are THE local Jamaicans living in Treasure Beach for generations. As for me - I am a Ukrainian living in Jamaica. Jamaicans moving to Ukraine can gentrify Ukraine, but not the other way around, because the standard of living in Jamaica is higher than in Ukraine (even before the war).

Jamaica is already gentrified by Jamaican .in many places, maybe you are only used to seeing the ungentrified area of Jamaica. And assume everywhere in Jamaica is like that. Don't be fooled by what you see mostly on Y.T And foreign media.
