700 cc rear wheel can't take the punishment



I hope someone from this excellent group can help me with this
problem.

I'm a commuter who's rear wheel can't seem to take the punishment.
It's constantly going out of round and spokes are losing tension. It
sounds like I'm making popcorn on my ride into work.

It's a 700 cc rim with a disk brake rotor and my lbs just says bring
the wheel in and we'll true it. They have nothing stronger.

Is there a 700 cc, disk brake rear wheel out there that can take the
punishment? The streets I ride on are brutal and I ride with a slick
pumped to about 110 psi. Perhaps I'm asking too much.

TIA for all replies.
