temporary shelter - The unforeseeable character of natural disasters (earthquakes,
vulcanic eruptions, floods, hurricanes or other natural
phenomenons) almost always produces human victims, who are
deprived of shelter, food and/or medical care. Particulary in the
case of shelters, the situation is precarious; people have to live in
unaffected houses, military tents or other improvisations.
I therefore considered that a study on designing temporary shelters
is more than necessary.
In the following, I present the principal
aspects of this design:
1. The realisation of interchangeable modules, easy to fabricate,
easy to transport and including assembling facilities.
2. Obtaining from this modules a multiplicity of spaces with shelter
function (medical spaces, sleeping places, feeding places,
passages between the tents, storage modules, and other
functions).
3. For this project, I used structures (composed of dismountable
tubular cylindric rods) with good qualities in resistence and weight,
and waterproof covering textures with an efficient thermal isolation.
The regulated geometrical structures are important for creating
order in the often great chaos after a calamity.Organizations such
as the Red Cross, the Army, Non-Governmental Organizations and
education institutes could benefit from the multifunctional design.
