Building a indestructable wheelset with 700x23 tires? 36h?

I want to build a wheelset that is extremely strong, but also able to take 700x23 tires safely.

I'm 180 lbs and will use the bike for commuting in philly. It needs to be fast for dodging cars but strong enough to plow through all of the disintegrating roads

I was thinking 36 spokes, 105 hubs, and velocity dyads... but I think the dyads might be too wide for what I'm going for.

Any advice / rim suggestions?
