My own home has an engineered lifespan of 200-300 years and has a six hour fire rating and is 9x more resistant to earthquakes and hurricanes.  I built it myself for about $80 psf.  Most people I've met show no interest in anything beyond their own projected lifespan... which is too bad because it is not necessarily more expensive to build better it just takes a willingness to do things differently.  We have the technology.

so, please describe your method and materials.
