{"product_id":"eduardo-reyes-storm-surge-storage-garage-9781998545179","title":"Storm-Surge Storage Garage","description":"Coastal garages fill first when storm tide barrels in-taking cars, tools, and decades of memories with them. This book flips that script. Architect-engineer Eduardo Reyes teaches you how to turn an ordinary slab-on-grade garage into a buoyant \"asset pod\" system that rises with floodwater, keeps contents bone-dry, and settles back down when the water retreats.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWhat you'll build and learn¿ Floating pod anatomy - plywood, closed-cell foam, and stainless hardware arranged to meet ASCE 24 freeboard guidelines.¿ Track \u0026amp; tether system that lets pods glide six feet up walls without scraping studs-or drifting into your neighbor's yard.¿ Two weekend budgets: a rough-cut DIY at $850 in materials, or a finished carpenter's version at $2 k.¿ Step-by-step layout for sealing electrical, fuel, and HVAC penetrations so the rest of the house stays safe.¿ Safe-lifting calculations so you know exactly how many pounds each pod can protect-whether that's power tools, heirloom furniture, or a classic motorcycle.¿ Permitting talk-tracks, inspection checklists, and insurance-premium-reduction tips that pay the project back in under three years for most policyholders.¿ Maintenance routines and seasonal prep so nothing binds, rusts, or molds before the next big surge.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nReal-world case studies from Florida, Louisiana, and the Philippines prove the concept works-in wood-frame cottages, concrete block ranchers, and even townhouse carports.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor snapshotEduardo Reyes, P.E., LEED AP, has 20 years of coastal-resilience design experience, including FEMA-funded rebuilds after Hurricanes Sandy, Harvey, and Ian. He lectures at MIT's Urban Risk Lab and serves on the ASCE Flood Resistant Design committee.","brand":"The Telephasic Workshop, Ltd.
