As a construction person myself does it make sense to rebuild houses and buildings with rebar and concrete. I have returned from the turks and caicos islands, building townhouses. Enforcement of building codes were lax as per all of the Caribbean I am very familiar building with light steel framing [LSF] as I have completed 2 hotels. I was impressed how flexible and durable the system was. I'm sure money from the Canadian government could be donated to offset costs. Again, it makes no $en$e to me re-building with rebar and concrete. I would be interested in your thoughts as I have people I can approach in the LSF industry.
