As we spoke, the State of Florida DCA approved shelter specified for this site has been designed for a 190mph wind speed to allow it to be used throughout the state of Florida whereas the foundation has been designed for 169mph as required by the Florida Building Code for this specific site. The shelter design wind speed is in excess of the minimum design wind speed required per FBC Figure 1609.3(2), thus is also acceptable and no changes are needed in our drawings. Thank you, Michael A.
