Concrete Canvas Shelters (Civil Applications)

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.

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

@outasight2010 Lol yer funny. Hear what 1,627 Verified Architects &

Engineers have to say about 911 here> AE911TRUTH . ORG

[outasight2010]

@bongojim420 ...no wonder you think like a fucking retard bongo jim 420....smoke another joint and STFU

[rondareid2000]

Where do i get the info on this? Purchase ... delivery ect. on the US

@dLimboStick Cut out whatever you need.

What about ventilation? Mold and mildew are killers.

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.

@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.

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.
