Project shelter, Part 2: Structural Verification

Abstract As part of the Fondef D09I1058 project, an emergency housing solution was developed and five prototypes constructed. The prototypes solved mechanical, thermal, water tightness and airtightness problems common to emergency housing, achieving a minimum durability of five years. Emergency hous...
