You should go to Fenney and see how the houses are actually built.
My last house was an Allamanda. The walls were actually poured concrete. They put 2 foot long medal straps down in the concrete and then looped them up over the roof trusses.
My garage doors do, indeed, have the deeper ribs that make them more wind resistant.
Rather than asking about some code standard, you should take a look at actually how they are built.
I am impressed by the building. I built 2 houses 'up north' and did none of the things that I see in my house here.
