Building Standard Commissions imaju strogu regulaciju gradnje, shodno tome i kuce izgledaju tako kakve jesu. Suvise opsirna tema za sve nas koji nismo directly involved in construction :grin: Da kuce nisu od materijala od kojih jesu, cigle i blokovi bi pobili mnogo vise ljudi za vreme tornada i zemljotresa... Takodje ima veze i sa mold, zbog koje svaki landlord moze debelo da bude liable...fire resistance etc.
U CA je sve ovo posebno vazno jer je trusno podrucje. Inace, skoro smo imali trening za zemljotrese na poslu i pokusavam da sebi izbacim iz glave sve ono sto su me ucili dok sam odrastala, tipa sklanjanja kod vrata i ispod stola... ovde se traze voids - pored cvrstih predmeta na koje ako nesto tesko padne ustvari se "osloni" na to i napravi trouglasti void - triangle of life ispod kojeg ste bezbedniji. Podosta opsirno, te vise o tome [URL="http://www.amerrescue.org/knowledge.htm"]ovde[/URL].
Ovde, posto nekako ima veze sa kucama evo nekoliko crtica - nadam se da nije suvise off topic:
