Committee Scope and Purpose
The scope of work and purpose of the Hurricane Research Advisory Committee (HRAC) is: to identify and review what research is being conducted related to building failure issues resulting from high wind events generally, and recent hurricanes in Florida specifically; to identify any research gaps on key issues identified from reports and studies but not being researched; to ensure that the Commission is provided with all relevant research findings on each of the major issues, prior to the Commission considering code enhancements resulting from lessons learned; and, to identify any needed Code changes the Commission should consider for enhancements to the wind and water resistance provisions of the Florida Building Code.
