  • By the end of next year, heavy-duty, impact-resistant windows will come standard in all new WCI Communities homes along the hurricane-prone Florida coast ;even though local codes allow builders to substitute less-expensive accordion or roll-down shutters.

  • During the past 15 years that BUILDING PRODUCTS has been in existence, engineered wood garnered widespread approval as new types were introduced to meet design challenges, and as engineering improved and prices fell somewhat. Today, engineered wood still costs at least 10 percent more than traditional lumber in most markets, and only very expensive new homes can boast 100 percent engineered frames. Most builders mix engineered wood with solid-sawn timber.
