In demolition there's an old saying, " it sucks to be you". When a worker does something stupid, you here it from the foreman. When the foreman are at the superintendent meeting, you hear it again from the superintendent. When the owner calls you in for a meeting and he wants to end your employment, this is the last time you here it.........."it sucks to be you".

yeah that's a dumb rule by FEMA. The owners/insurance companies would pay for any damage during a hurricane, so it would be a gamble on their part, not FEMA. Unless they are scared that people won't evacuate during storms and there is going to be a lot of people staying on the first floor

Be nice since I own it that I can make up my own mind whether I want to take the risk or not. And I could sign paperwork that says that they're not at risk, in case of a hurricane, and I would take my own responsibility, which I take, anyway, it's kind of funny how the government gotta stick their nose in your business

Pressure treated wood has no arsenic (CCA) anymore. Internally if you use white primer/sealer for use on studs and plywood for below grade or underwater potential areas. It's acceptable in most residential applications. The sealer should/will prevent leaching from the wood. Prepare boards prior to framing.
