Are Yurts a legal habitable structure on Big I

wow this is awesome, there is hope in Hawaii, I couldn't imagine getting anything alternative permitted here in CA, if so, it would take an act of congress. Or new title 24 energy codes and firecodes are extremely restrictive. Getting those containers permitted is awesome,
I wonder how they handled meeting the shear requirements especially using salvaged materials. The properties of untested salvaged materials are unkown. I have to throw away complete roofs / trusses as salvaged they are unusable here, such a waste.
