Proposed here, is a fast and efficient design for a three-phase operation to setup emergency relief structures. Phase one [pre-storm]: modular components are constructed at an offsite manufacturing assembly line and put into storage. Phase two [amidst the storm]: trucks, with mounted cranes, for modular delivery, and teams of workers are prepped for deployment of these relief houses. Phase three [post-storm]: a team of trucks deliver three steel modular units, 10’x14’x10’. Each section bolts together at specific locations. Wall, floor, and roof modular units, 2’x10’, slide into place along steel angles and lock into each other. A group of two is all that is needed for installation.
A fast, simple response system will not only provide thousands of families a home for temporary shelter but the confidence to re-build from all that was lost.
