(NewsUSA) - Violent weather events cause substantial loss of life and property damage throughout the world. Although we can’t control the weather, we can control how we prepare. Climate® Non-Slump (NS) Adhesive: A revolutionary product designed to help buildings better withstand extreme weather and earthquakes. When buildings survive, people survive.

Climate® NS, is a specialized high-performance structural adhesive designed to help buildings withstand seismic and violent-wind events. It functions as a shock absorber, increasing wall strength by up to 300 percent in light-frame-wood and panel-built structures.

Traditional wood frame buildings rely on nails and fasteners, which are typically sufficient when a building is at rest. However, these structures may not be designed for the forces applied by more frequent and intense violent winds and earthquakes, as their integrity depends on hundreds of nails. Climate® NS, a moisture-curing, non-shrinking polyether adhesive sealant, aims to address this vulnerability.

When applied to various points of a wood frame building, such as sub-flooring, stud-to-sheathing walls, and rafter/truss-to-top plate, this elastomeric adhesive creates "monocoque" or "load sharing function" buildings. This creates uniform bonds over the external surfaces of the framing lumber, allowing for a wider and more uniform distribution of load from the roof to the foundation, improving the chances of the building staying intact. The product is Eco-friendy and non-toxic. It can be used in various construction conditions, including damp, dry, or cold, and it cures down to 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Climate® NS is durable and ductile. Its elasticity helps to absorb the cyclic forces of high winds and seismic events. It can elongate by as much as 950 percent and still stay in place, which helps buildings hold together in extreme conditions.

The cost of applying Climate® NS is minimal, amounting to less than 1% of building material costs. It works out to pennies per square foot but can increase a home's structural integrity by 200-300 percent, according to published scientific journal articles on testing results.
