Attention followers of Arch.E.S.D.T. LLC call for "Building code reform" On invite we are looking to attend "The 5th World Congress on Environmental Science" and speak on behalf of those suffering from "Natural Disasters" around the world and the inability of our infrastructures to withstand "Natures Natural Flow"

Inadequate Building Codes vs Climate Change

A 46 year mission to bring awareness to "Inadequate Building Codes" and there relation to "Climate Change" is on the threshold of world recognition on "Global Scale."
My mission is for all of us to have Faith in a better tomorrow through "Building code reform." If you a family member or friend has been effected by "Inadequate Building Code" come forward and help bring this "Deadly" issue to light. As it is the yearly average cost of inadequate building codes is;
50,000 (up to 300,000+) killed per yr 
150,000 (up to 900,000+) are displaced per yr 
1 Trillion (up to 700 Trillion) in damages per yr 
500 Billion CY (up to 500 Trillion CY) of waste per yr 
39 to 40% of all Emissions in the world (This is only new construction & does not reflect emission 
from recovery, cleanup, and rebuilding of a community)
Money usage; 
1) Flight to and form Toronto  Canada
2) Pay for the right to speak on "World Stage" not just a booth
3) Print all required materials for presentation

How many ways can one say “Building codes reform” is a must. That all the “Bio Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Permaculture Intervention, Green Buildings, Wind Generators, Solar Arrays, and Hydro Generators” will be all for nothing if we do not confront “Building Code Reform” worldwide.

When asking; How can bio-engineers work to heal our world if they are always working to solve the newest disaster and not continuing their studies on earth recovery? What use is studding the environment and environmental engineering just to watch it become extinct? Where can the Permaculturist plant if the seeds, air, soil, and water are unsafe due to contaminants and what is not contaminated they must pay for? How can we call a building “Green” for our communities if it can still succumbs to nature’s natural flow and become a bio hazard to the surrounding environment? What of the wind generators kill rate to our bird life, or the carnage it will leave after a tornado or earthquake if they fall or the blades brake free?  And are we really ready for tornadoes filled with fine shards of glass and mirrors? Is it not bad enough that 1000s of birds and insects die flying over the solar arrays or that we are supper heating the atmosphere with them? Hydro Generators are by far the best solution of this list yet can’t they too pose a threat to our environment as they can be affected by hurricanes, water spouts, and what of their affects on ocean wildlife and their migration patterns?, we can see all of these are quick fixes’ for long term issues, none address the long term global issues of “Destruction, devastation, delay, decay, denial, discord, and death” do to inadequate building code worldwide, yet all are related to and fall under present day and future building codes.

Re:       Recognition; Application of Constitutional Building Code Reform

The US Inherent Constitutional Building Codes (ICB Code)

US States are deprived of  this fundamental law, costing more than just lives but also a way of life guaranteed to them, for within the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights is the Inherent Constitutional Building Code, not yet realized.

There is a difference between a natural disasters and a natural weather phenomenon, primarily a manmade structure or human interaction in the natural environment. Furthermore, is it a natural disaster when the ecological disaster is human rubble? Much has been lost without the ICB Code, and it's relation to the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights originated with these words:

INDIVIDUALISM, of a State and it's citizens are in constant threat from Federal Jurisdiction, Marshal Law with extreme weather, or when a factory/corporation’s operations pose a threat with or without a natural disaster. Sovereignty of a state it's counties and cities therein will never come to fruition as long as building codes promote disasters, decay, death, discord and distrust. As states loos their Sovereign Rights to Individualism when they request aid from the Federal Government which is illegal. 

LIFE & LIBERTY, is equal to saying Free Will, better known as metaphysics. This cannot be if everything you achieve in this world can be wiped off the face of the Earth because one’s home is no longer a shelter, and your Sovereignty as a state, county, city or person is stripped because the need for Federal Aid and FEMA to recover from inadequate building codes.

PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS vanishes quickly in places like Tornado Alley and costal regains with no code reform in sight after over 200 years of Natural Disaster History. How can we have "Pursuit of Happiness" if per-say Dow Chemicals, Round-up or GMO's poisons the air, water, and soil we derive our happiness from?

PROPERTY of every nature is jeopardized with the current state of affairs, case in point, Polar Vortex, New Jersey, Philippines, Haiti, and Tornado Alley to stare with. Even the existence of nuclear power plant strips us of these Rights. (Look to Fukushima nuclear power plants for the truth to this) And what I stated above applies here as well, "If per-say Dow Chemicals, Round-up or GMO's poisons the air, water, and soil" that is our physical property is this not a infringement, also going against the Declaration of Independence

When asking “What does the government owe to society?” Sharswood* put it best in saying, “The impartial administration of equal & just laws, which insure the security of life, liberty, and property.”

The ICB Code is advantageous to the sustainability of this country and its future generations. Once recognized the Natural Disaster Environmental History Code (NDEH Code) can also be implemented at some point.**

Change is needed for knowledge is power

What is it going to take for the people of our world to understand it is time for change? Change in the way we build our homes, buseness, factories, communities, infrastructures!
You can find out for yourself what is happening in our world when speaking of Natural Disasters:

http://www.gdacs.org/
http://globaldisasterwatch.blogspot.com/
http://www.globalissues.org/issue
http://www.disaster-report.com/

Scientists: Global Warming ‘Very Likely’ Caused Recent Extreme Weather Disasters: Extreme weather events over the past decade have increased and we're “very likely” caused by manmade global warming, a study in the journal Nature Climate Change said on Sunday. “Scientists at Germany’s Potsdam Institute for Climate Research used physics, statistical analysis and computer simulations to link extreme rainfall and heat waves to global warming,” Furthermore, since Fukushima in 2011 tornadoes and surveyor weather throw out the U.S. has been booted 10 fold in the since of severity, deration, death toll, cost, even "Never seen before" in said region.....

Where is your Sovereignty?

Here we are once again, looking at the newest round of Natural Disasters that shouldn’t have been disasters to begin with as they are a Natural Weather Phenomenon. Yet we humanize the weather phenomenon by naming it Hurricane Harvey, Irma, or Jose, while dehumanizing the communities hit. By speaking more about the danger, the view of the scene, the unrest and the action of the community after weeks of unanswered questions, awaiting help and answers to when ether will come, we lose sight of the real issue, which is the suffering of the people at the hands of their leaders to protect them or build sustainable. Then there is the genocide of whole communities due to inadequate building codes, while being told we should considered ourselves lucky when our whole community is displaced. Time and time again we see this cycle of disaster, “Destruction, devastation, delay, decay, denial, discord, and death.” I have coined these “The 7 D’s of Inadequate Building Codes.” Once again our states (countries) must surrender their sovereignty in order to receive aid they already paid the Federal Government (UN) to receive (via Federal Tax, UN Membership Fees)

I feel I am at a loss, so much to say, so much already said, so much outrage, feeling so helpless to make people listen. How many ways can one say “Building codes reform” is a must. That all the “Bio Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Permaculture Intervention, Green Buildings, Wind Generators, Solar Arrays, and Hydro Generators” will be all for nothing if we do not confront “Building Code Reform” worldwide.

When asking; How can bio-engineers work to heal our world if they are always working to solve the newest disaster and not continuing their studies on earth recovery? What use is studding the environment and environmental engineering just to watch it become extinct? Where can the Permaculturist plant if the seeds, air, soil, and water are unsafe due to contaminants and what is not contaminated they must pay for? How can we call a building “Green” for our communities if it can still succumbs to nature’s natural flow and become a bio hazard to the surrounding environment? What of the wind generators kill rate to our bird life, or the carnage it will leave after a tornado or earthquake if they fall or the blades brake free?  And are we really ready for tornados filled with fine shards of glass and mirrors? Is it not bad enough that 1000s of birds and insects die flying over the solar arrays or that we are supper heating the atmosphere with them? Hydro Generators are by far the best solution of this list yet can’t they too pose a threat to our environment as they can be affected by hurricanes, water spouts, and what of their affects on ocean wildlife and their migration patterns?, we can see all of these are quick fixes’ for long term issues, none address the long term global issues of “Destruction, devastation, delay, decay, denial, discord, and death” do to inadequate building code worldwide, yet all are related to and fall under present day and future building codes.

When breaking down the “Effects of Inadequate Building Codes” we can see;

On average,

1. 50,000 (up to 300,000+) killed per yr
2. 150,000 (up to 900,000+) are displaced per yr
3. 1 Trillion (up to 700 Trillion) in damages per yr
4. 500 Billion CY (up to 500 Trillion CY) of waste per yr
5. 39 to 40% of all Emissions in the world (This is only new construction & does not reflect emission from recovery, cleanup, and rebuilding of a community)
6. 100,000 killed (up to 500,000) from drought when they live in monsoon regions
7. Building to resist nature’s natural flow causes the worst strain on our natural resources because natural disasters pollute the environment as well as the cost of new building material like steel, cement, and wood to rebuild.

 According to “Berkeley Lab’s” Buildings in the U.S. today consume, * (Globally the numbers are higher)

           h.  72 percent of electricity produced

9. 55 percent of U.S. natural gas use
10. Around 40 percent of total U.S. Energy consumption (costing $350+ billion per year)
11. Around 40 percent of total U.S. Greenhouse gas emissions
12. That reducing the GHG emissions associated with buildings is essential to reducing overall U.S. emissions

How does “Bio Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Permaculture Intervention, Green Buildings, Wind Generators, Solar Arrays, and Hydro Generators” prevent and protect us from these incurred cost of/to Life, Land, Liberty, Sovereignty, Prosperity, as well as Our Natural Resources?

*- http://newscenter.lbl.gov/2009/06/02/working-toward-the-very-low-energy-consumption-building-of-the-future/

While reviewing said numbers, consider the last 30 days and the total cost to the People for the “Build Up, Board-up, Tear-down, Rebuild” endless cycle of the broken record mentality of modern day “Building Codes.” We must stop building to resist nature and its natural flow. With building codes emphasizing on Resistance Rating for all structural designs, building material and not a Flow Rating we only build to be in conflict and war with nature, hence we see only the 7 Ds, “Destruction, devastation, delay, decay, denial, discord, and death.”

Then there is the matter of weather forecasters, reporters, first responders, and insurance underwriters seeing firsthand the 7 Ds and not coming forward to demanded complete building code reform. To think our leaders would have us go to war for much less (look to the Iraq war), saddens this writer. If that’s not bad enough, no one has come forward to address the fact that every since Fukushima in 2011, unnatural severe weather phenomenon’s have increased and new records have been set, starting that year with 2011’s tornado season in the US. With the radioactive waters now encompassing the equator we see ocean temperatures off the charts, record die off of aquatic life, an increase of predator attacks in open waters, as well as a increase of tornados in areas not normally subject to this threat due in part to the off shore temperatures being drastically above normal, and then there is our current hurricane season that will sent the world record through the roof. Furthermore, we are not taking into account the effects of solar weather has on our global weather. It was made very clear to us with Hurricane Sandy making landfall simultaneously as a solar flare (Measuring to high to be recorded and appearing as a white splotch in the center of a rainbow on HAM Radio sites) hit over the exact location, hence being coined “Franken Storm” and whipped out New Jersey and the CDC’s Plum Island. It would seem we humans are inclined to take things apart and study them yet we lack the ability to sum them up as a whole and see them for what they are when we are done dissecting them.

Now let us consider a future with Building Code Reform in place, a future where home that are not built to flow with nature have disaster shelter in their back yard like the Liphe Podd Systems stage one shelter so no longer do folk die from trying to evacuate, drowning, or flying debris. Where new home and building construction demands that the structure is self sustaining in of itself, collecting its own water supply from dew and rain water, harnessing the sun and wind for electric power and heating and cooling. Where every structure built must have an atrium with an inner garden/yard to clean the gray and brown water produced by occupants.  Where nothing on the outside of the structure can be grabbed, pulled, or broke off. Building designed taking into account Nature Natural Designs, like eggs, nuts, shells, rocks, birds nest and so forth, and have a “Saddleback Foundation System” to gather flood water and protect from earthquakes. This future communities and their infrastructure would be truly sustainable.

MEMORANDUM REVIEW ON CONSTITUTIONAL BUILDING CODE REFORM

NOTE: This is TRUE for any country with a Peoples Constitution!

Logical Thinking in Architecture

It would stand to reason that folks of this here United States and the World would see the flaws in Architectural Design in our so-called industrial society. Yet in many ways have a blind trust in the local governing body to insure ones safety.  Truly though, let us look at the faces:

1. Natural Disasters are Natural so why are they a disaster? Building Codes?
2. Your home IS NOT your shelter, for you are forced to evacuate when nature calls.
3. Year after year folks are boarding up and/or rebuilding their community with no code change.
4. Think how much more you are paying every year for building supplies do to the “Business as usual” of board-up/tear down/rebuild mentality of the modern engineering & architectural communities.
5. There has been an outcry to reduce the strain on our Natural Resources, yet  each time a natural disaster strikes our Natural Resources are put to the test.

6. Insurance cost across the board have been on the rise over the last 30 yrs doto communities being wiped out by what comes from nature, “NATURES NATURAL FLOW”.
7. Then there is on average 300,000 people killed each year and 900,000 displaced due to the lack in structural design and its ability to be sustainability lasting structures.
8.What of the fact, that every time you are asked to evacuate your communities, you stand the chance that the Local or Federal Governing bodies could seize your land and you will never be allowed to return to your homes or communities.
9. When talking of sustainability and building green, if a structure is not sustainable in of itself is it truly sustainable or green when you must evacuate it tomorrow?

Folks say we live it the modern age yet we still build Byzantine, Roman, Gothic, cubical structure that have never and will never protect our highways, byways, communities, businesses, and homes. As it stands, all building codes fall under what is known as a Resistance Rating or R rating. This “R” rating interprets how well the structure and it components can resist the earth’s natural flow. The resistance to the “Load Bearing” force (R rating) of the natural elements and the earth is the building code way. Yet how can this truly lead to sustainability in our world when in reality we build to be in conflict with the natural elements and the earth by building to resist. The word itself means “To be in conflict or war with,” is this how the other creatures of our world live? Or do they build their homes to flow with nature and at the same time reek the benefits of nature’s natural flow.

Now, let us look at building codes and said materials for ways in which we can build to flow with the natures natural elements and the earth. In saying this, let us now consider a new form of rating system, a Flow Rating or “FR” rating. What is Flow Rating code all about? It is about designing “All New Structures” to flow with the natural elements of nature and the earth. Hence, we can start this first by retrofit any structure we can with a saddleback foundation system. For as long as the structure is tethered to the earth it will sarcoma to its movement by being pulled and twisted by the same earth it is tether to. Looking for an alternative we will look to the incredible eatable egg for an example, but not to eat. Hypothetically, thinking of an egg cut it in half on its side as a basement (attached to home) and also as a sub-basement (saddleback foundation system-attached, to earth), being properly counter balanced the structure would be free of the force of the earth to move and shift during an earthquake.

Also with the egg/oval let us think new home. With the egg or oval shape for a home or other structure we see that one can create a form of sustainable living. The outer part of the structure can be wrapped with water & solar collectors as well as having ways to harness the wind/air. This home can be ideal for all natural environments and the elements there in.

(Not to scale)

First level is to be filled in to the Second level for a year round yard & garden with miniature fruit trees and/or pond if one likes and here is where the bathroom should be. Third level is to be living room, dining room, kitchen, etc. The forth level is bedrooms and bathroom. All gray water piped in the outer walls down to second level garden area. If we can ultimately eliminate ALL external connections pips and wires the structure truly becomes sustainable & green way of life. As long as the home is hooked up in any way to gas, water or power the saddleback foundation system is the safest way to do so. Seeing that the home is to be cradled in a saddleback foundation, a quick release/shutoff valve system for these lines is the answer to gas leak/explosion, water leak/lack of water pressure, and down lines, & the shutdown of grids where services are still need.

Furthermore, this structure has the ability to be buoyant & tethered during floods (clean-out saddleback foundation system & reconnect), tornadoes cannot rip it apart & if it is equipped with foundation lock-down unit the structure would remain connected to the saddleback foundation (unless flood, where it can be released), with the tsunamis, nether the in-going & outgoing tide or the debris therein would be a real threat to the structure. Then with earthquakes this structural design can allow the earth to move freely under the structure so as not to have the structure crack or fail. This design can also be tailored to withstand armed threats all while providing a Sustainable green building that can be 100% free of outside means of survival. In saying this, think of this home in Alaska, this structure is ideal for the cold climate and being snowed in as well as the extreme heat zones for water loss.

On the corporate or business side of things and lost revenue, a service is still needed of upkeep to all equipment in the structure. There is no reason why these services could not be mandated the soul responsibility of the utility companies and at the same time they can profit from the runoff or overload of each unit. The utility companies’ chance of making even more money than they are now is inevitable.

In closing, when looking for a true sustainable future in architecture, we need to look to NATURE for the answers. An egg was just one example of nature’s way to live safe from the elements, you can also look at all the types of sea shells for another good example. Let us put SHELTER back in to the meaning of HOME for your home should be your shelter. Evacuation is not the answer to the preservation of our communities.
