this is no bug out bungalow its more like your idiotic design promo. There are more useful ways to develop small efficient housing rather than some complicated heavy crap that is more than likely too expensive for average people.
@horacekemp hey the guys a builder he just wanted to build somethin i imagin after a week in a bug out scenario id wanna build somthin better then a tarp (real BOB shelter) too!
Yeah that's funny, you climbing up that valley, talking about how strong the building is. WELL, you take off those four cables you have the bottom corners tied together with, you'll bust your butt. that thing will spread out like a cheerleader doing the splits.
Why "Bug-out?" Is it your design concept for this to be used as a system of quickly deployable emergency housing? I could see these in kit form and packed in containers etc so they could get on-site and could be built by anybody who can 'swing a hammer.' Any more info on your original concept?
Huh, I played around with some scale models of a structure identical to this but concluded that there were too many valleys where water can (and will) get into the wood. Also, since it's so high, the heat will rise out of the living area. You could fix that with an air recirculating fan, tough. Neat concept and I'd like to see what you do with it, but I'll probably stick with a simpler roof designed to maximize solar gain.
Neat concept. I work with fiberglass and I would suggest a sandwich panel using the foam as the center and two 1/2 inch plywood panels on either side, then glass over the whole panel making it both weather proof, strong and light.
Made a screw together building with panels using 8 by 10 sections that fits on a small trailer.
Your roof makes no sense. A shed roof or a salt box type makes better use of space

"small, economical cabin." ok at 24 seconds ,
i am gona guess its more expensive than
a tent for the number of people housed , &
half as usefull for the same material that
an a frame can be made from it

What about High Winds and I am talking about 50 to 60 mph +.

Very nice design!
You can see my solarcabin channel for ideas on solar, water and septic systems.

I doubt this structure will handle 300mph winds....

I would like to see more of one after completion.
