Ett projekt med syfte att presentera en ny lösning till katastrofbostäder
AbstractThe number of natural disasters are increasing. Disaster relief today is improving, but not enough.The purpose of my graduation paper is to present a new solution to shelters. It?s important to remember the human, social and environmental aspects when designing a shelter for disaster relief. Each group within the population has to be able to use the shelter and benefit from it. You need to consider the different conditions whitin different countries, and I have chosen to direct my work towards Sri Lanka.Based on my research I have been able to analyse the demad and needs of people affected by natural disasters.My solution to the problem is based on a plastic sheet. The plastic sheet is combined with cardboard plates which gives it structure and lasting. It?s able to use the plastic sheet in a different way than before. The sheet is able to fold into different shelters and it?s materials offers a possibility to develop it further in the future.
