I-Team: Faulty Anchors
June 9, 2009
The state of Georgia has ordered nearly 200 manufactured homes be inspected amid allegations the installation company cut corners on safety.
A properly anchored home should be able to withstand at least a 70 mile per hour wind storm... just under tornado level winds. Texas Tech University even tested one anchoring system by cranking up a C-130 and aiming the prop wash directly at the home.
