First Semester-Second Project:
Temporary Shelter
3D modeling
This topic focus on temporary shelters, mostly for refugees of all kind of disasters, including flooding, earthquakes, war, etc. I will focus on refugees caused by regional conflicts at western Myanmar. Most of the fleeing population crosses the border of Bangladesh, which heavily overloaded the local residence and medical facility. In order to accommodate such amount of refugees, temporary structures will have to be built to house such populations. In order to have maximum buildings built in the shortest time available, using local materials will be the best method, and bamboos and woods needed for construction are all rich resources in Bangladesh.

By minimizing the specifications will also speed up the process, with only four type of Tiber with different lengths and a single type of length of bamboos needed. Hygiene equipment and the plywood needed for the roof can be transported by UN peacekeeper trucks in nearby areas. The interior of the shelter is designed to be high enough to fit a full size tent, which can house around 5-7 personnel. The V-shaped roof can collect rain water effectively, and a pipe system will connect it to the restroom nearby for the water to be reused. Leveled floor enables residents to avoid flooding that will highly occur during monsoon in Bangladesh.
