Easy To Assemble Emergency Shelters

Emergency shelters provide a temporary living place to the people who have lost their homes due to any natural disaster, or accident

. Emergency shelters can also be used as impermanent site offices, or homes. Police or law enforcement agencies can use them as their temporary head offices near the site of operation. In short, an emergency shelter refers to a safe haven, assembled for some time, under different favourable and unfavourable circumstances.

There are some organizations or departments aimed at providing shelter to the sufferers of any disaster. They take temporary measures to provide shelter until the process of reconstruction is going on. All the basic facilities are a must in these shelters. The facility of counseling is provided in some emergency shelters for the healthy growth of individuals.

Some emergency shelters have extra facilities including life straws that protect the inhabitants from water born pathogens. The material used to make some shelters is mosquito repellent which saves the inhabitants from the harm of mosquitoes or attack of malaria.

If we talk about the emergency shelters, they are the basic things needed by the people, as they need something to give them shelter, and privacy. Therefore, an emergency shelter has to be lightweight as well as portable. If it is not, it will become very difficult to transport it to the sight where it is needed. These emergency shelters have evolved greatly over the period of time.

There are many other innovative ideas to assemble emergency shelters. Large containers, that are otherwise useless, can be used as emergency shelters. These containers can be modified into rooms with door, and window. When placed one above the other, they can provide sufficient living space to the people.

Emergency hospitals and other command posts utilise an OVAL. Its assembly requires tarpaulin, PVC pipes, and joints. They contain a zip open entry, and a peg hole for the support. It is compact, and can be assembled with little effort. It is often supplied by the relief agencies.

There are many easy to assemble emergency shelters made up of self-inflatable plastics. These shelters are very useful at places where human support cannot reach. These shelters are dropped from the air, to the disaster locations. They are mostly dome shaped. They are made up of different elements that are arranged, and joined concentrically. They can be linked to form dome complexes.

The major advantage of emergency shelters is that they are not only easy to assemble but also a quick response to a disastrous situation. It is easy to connect the components of these shelters and install them anywhere hence providing quick relief to people in distress.
