Building Code Compliance

Our complete range of homes are engineered for use in hurricane prone locations. They are made with a robust steel frame structure which is engineered according to the building code that applies in the build location.
For hurricane prone locations the modular construction system is designed for 200MPH wind loadings in full compliance with ASCE7-22 codes, and based on the precise build location and terrain type.
Each Bauhu home is supplied with a full structural engineering report and detailed architectural and construction plans

Eco Responsible

Hurricane Resistance

Our complete range of homes are designed to be built in hurricane prone locations. They are made with a robust steel frame structure which is engineered according to the building code that applies in the build location.
The most common causes of building envelope failure in hurricane and tropical storm winds are water intrusion and impact from windborne debris. This range of buildings have impact resistant glass in all windows and a special hurricane resistant outer cladding from STo which protects not only against impact but also is fire resistant up to two hours. All of Sto’s Hurricane Systems meet the stringent Miami-Dade County, Florida NOA criteria for impact resistance, air and water infiltration, and wind load resistance.
Structural failure is rare in modern buildings providing that they are correctly tied to a ground slab or foundation and that adequate roof to wall top connections are used. An engineered steel frame system uses high tensile bolts to make these connections ensuring the integrity of the building from the foundation right up to the roof structure.

Warranty Support

Our strict factory based quality control ensures that completed buildings are thoroughly inspected prior to delivery but nevertheless our buildings a fully guaranteed for two years in the case of manufacturing defects. Third party suppliers component failure varies from two to thirty years. Detailed limited warranty terms are available on request.

Remote Locations

Some of the worlds most desirable locations are also the hardest to get to. Factory manufactured homes are a perfect solution for locations where mainstream construction supplies are not available or very expensive to obtain. Our international network of logistics experts are on hand to work out the transport.

“We currently have one Bauhu home ordered for the Virgin Islands, with a few more in progress. The product is a very well thought-out kit, and fills a much needed niche between expensive concrete construction and non-engineered wood shanty or container houses. ”

— St Croix The Virgin Islands

“Bauhu's kits are one of only two that we can recommend that we've been impressed with, the other is an all-wood kit - beautiful finishes and woodwork, but a much slower and more expensive process.”

— St Thomas US Virgin Islands
