our architects know how to build for hurricanes...


Wrong. Structural engineers design building structures for wind, seismic, storm surges, etc. Also, architects do not build, they design. Contractors build.

Most municipalities do not require an architect or engineer to design a house. The residential code is more strict in hurricane prone regions. The code is prescriptive, and a contractor just needs to meet the code minimum.
