註釋This report, archived from the website of James Cook University, concerns structural damage to buildings as a result of Tropical Cyclone Yasi, which made landfall in the early hours of Thursday 3rd February 2011, the eye passing over the Mission Beach region. Under wind load actions, buildings correctly designed and constructed to the standards/requirements introduced in the 1980s performed well. The exceptions were roller doors, tiled roofs and water entry. Each of these has been specifically addressed in the report, including recommendations for improvement in each case. Planning and the development of new construction requirements for buildings within a storm surge zone are recommended in order to reduce the risk of structural damage in future events.
