The Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety's mission is to conduct objective, scientific research to identify, evaluate and promote effective actions that strengthen homes, businesses and communities against natural hazards and other causes of loss.
IBHS conducts research to help protect homes and businesses against various causes of loss.
Research Center Projects: At the unique, world-class IBHS Research Center in South Carolina, IBHS conducts a variety of tests to examine the impact of wind, fire, hail and wind-driven water on both residential and commercial structures. The multi-faceted research approach includes: full-scale testing of one- and two-story test specimens; physical testing of individual structural components and building systems; and, evaluation of existing/potential test methods and metrics. Transparent, objective research methodologies are utilized. Research Center staff coordinates and leverages Institute resources through partnerships with manufacturers, trade groups and other scientists and research organizations. Total expense for this work is approximately $4.4 million annually; partnerships with public, private and academic organizations brought in $60,894 of revenue to the Research Center, all of which was utilized for research conducted in conjunction with that specific partnership.
FORTIFIED Programs: IBHS has developed and promulgated a set of science-based, hazard-specific building design, repair, and retrofitting standards for residential and commercial construction. Further development of individual standards is ongoing, and IBHS is in the midst of working to scale up our hurricane standard for new and existing site-built, manufactured and modular homes - while maintaining quality control over the standard and designation process. Total expense for this work in 2020 was confined to the IBHS annual budget in the form of personnel, IT, and travel costs. No revenue is generated by this work.
