We blasted mobile homes with hurricane‑force winds to test how they fail – and found clues for making affordable housing safer

Engineers are using a unique test facility called the Wall of Wind to develop housing that’s both affordable and disaster-resistant. Their tests show the magnitude of the challenge.

研究團隊在風洞中對全尺寸預制房屋施加颶風級風力，首次用傳感器和高速影像記錄其破壞順序。結果顯示預制房屋可以既經濟又抗風，但需要更新州與聯邦建築規範並改進安裝方式。
