Concrete Cloth Shelters




The design I chose is that of concrete canvas shelters, which provide relief in areas of the world affected by extreme poverty, warfare, or natural disasters. It is especially helpful because of the minimal tools required for assembly (air and water) and the ease of transport (it can be airlifted or carried by several able people). The shelter will pop up and the concrete will harden in the sun in a matter of hours, creating a large shelter for medical aid or simply a refuge from the elements.
