Transporting all components at once limits logistical
incidentals, including fuel expenses (reducing global resources)
and emissions caused by additional deliveries.

Steel components replace traditional timber frames, reducing
the need to fell trees and destroy habitat.
These components ensure maximum longevity of the structure
and decrease the need for replacement of rotting, pest infested
or otherwise damaged items.
Significant Saving for Energy Requirements
The R19 thermal insulation properties of a Force 10 Building
reduce energy costs for heating and cooling!

TestimonialsTestimonials
A Force 10 structure, within 200' of the ocean, has already survived the destruction of four hurricanes on St. Johns,
U.S. Virgin Islands.
St. Johns US Virgin Islands
Built in 1995, this lovely home has withstood Hurricanes Luis, Marilyn, Bertha and Georges without suffering any structural damage.
“...In 1998 St. John was looking into the maw of Hurricane Georges, which was about to be upgraded to Category 5, the highest category for a hurricane. I knew of
a Force 10 house where I could take myself and my kids. In the end, we had six kids, four moms, and the couple who resided in the house, coexisting in a 920 square foot, three bedroom house for the duration of the storm. I can't begin to describe how comfortable and safe we felt - the kids still think it was just a fun
sleepover!” Laura Masterson,
St. John U.S.V.I.
