This is brillant. This could be the wave of the future for diaster housing. These could be delivered to people who have lost their homes due to tornados, hurricanes or fire, and also to house the homeless. I just wonder how they are heated and cooled? Between shipping contianers, earth bag/natural homes there is no reason for homeless to exist in the world. We have the resources and ways to make low cost homes.
Thank you so much for kindly sharing this out-standing and wonderful Art-building construction.
Best regards,

Concrete Canvas Shelters (CCS) are rapidly deployable hardened shelters that can be deployed by 2 people, in under 1 hour. CCS have two major advantages over conventional tented shelter:
Operational: CCS enable a hardened structure from day one of an operation. They provide much better environmental protection, increased security and vastly improved medical capability.
Financial: CCS have a design life of over 10 years, whereas tents wear out rapidly and must then be replaced. CCS are a one stop solution, saving effort and cost over the lifetime of medium to long term operations.
The key to CCS is the use of inflation to create a surface that is optimised for compressive loading. This allows thin walled concrete structures to be formed which are both robust and lightweight. CCS consist of a revolutionary cement based composite fabric (Concrete Cloth) bonded to the outer surface of a plastic inner which forms a Nissen-Hut shaped structure once inflated.
@MaTchBoOkPoEt They run about 30k The US Taxpayers have paid for hundreds and sent them overseas to people who want to kill us. Doesn't it make you feel like a tool?
@thegreatwoodlife 911 was a inside job. The USA government with Israel did 911.
Better to face reality than live in denial. We are tools, here to work, pay hundreds of TAX'S and accept government lies. People will ''get it'' one day...When its too late.
My question is at what temperature does this product cease to be effective? And if you can tell me, how have they have exceeded current limitations in what are potentially extremely ardous conditions?
The chemical reaction involved in the formation of concrete requires the cataylst, usally water or treated water' to be wet. Even with accelerants this creates a limitation upon the occurence of said reaction, with accelerants and antifreeze this limitation is more flexeble than 0 celsius but in current commercial applications is still limited to around -4 celsius before the water ceases to function effectively as a catalyst, and requires hording.

@imkraft Well, no, its only concrete, so its only bulletproof against small arms like pistols or smgs. But, it is posible to cover them in sandbags, Kevlar or even extra layers of the concrete canvas.
give me a break...and do me a favor don;t vote for that fucking loser oboho again....oh that's right people like you don't vote....good

It would be really nice if it had some built in insulation.
Maybe a thin layer of cheap Aerogel fabric.
Aerogel Fabric is thin, so you get great performance in a small package.
