Investing Wisely Before the Storm Season: A Sustainable Development Imperative
-
05/05/2026
As summer begins, it also signals the arrival of the tropical monsoon storm season in Vietnam. Typically lasting from June to November—with peak activity in September, October, and November—this period has long been a major concern for the construction industry.
Looking back at 2024, Typhoon Yagi left hundreds of structures in dangerous conditions. With wind speeds reaching up to 150 km/h, numerous steel-structured factories and warehouses suffered severe damage, disrupting operations and causing significant financial losses.
However, what is often overlooked is that many of these risks are not entirely caused by natural disasters.

When Risk Is Underestimated
In practice, quite a few engineers, during the design phase, omit or scale back certain safety standards, assuming that extreme weather events are unlikely to occur. Storms of the magnitude of Yagi are often considered “once-in-80-years” scenarios, leading to a false sense of security.
At the same time, some investors opt for low-cost contractors in an effort to minimize upfront expenses. This decision frequently comes with trade-offs: reduced compliance with safety standards and the use of lower-quality materials.

The Real Problem: Saving in the Wrong Place
For industrial buildings such as factories and warehouses, structural components—including columns, beams, walls, and roofing—typically account for only 15–20% of the total construction cost. In high-tech facilities, this percentage can be even lower.
In contrast, the value of M&E systems, machinery, and goods housed within these structures is significantly higher.
The reality is clear: saving just a few percent in construction costs can put 100% of the assets inside at risk.

Building for Resilience and Sustainability
To mitigate these risks and ensure long-term sustainability, investors should prioritize:
- Selecting reputable and experienced contractors with proven track records
- Strictly complying with safety and engineering standards
- Investing adequately in load-bearing and structural integrity
These measures are not merely additional costs - they are essential investments in resilience, safety, and business continuity.

A Forward-Looking Perspective
As weather patterns become increasingly unpredictable and extreme due to climate change, the likelihood and severity of storms continue to rise. The risks are no longer theoretical—they are present and growing.
Waiting until disaster strikes is not a strategy.
By the time a storm arrives, it is already too late to correct decisions made during the design and construction phases. The true cost of cutting corners will far exceed any initial savings.
