Natural Disaster Relief Shelter

&

Survival Kit

WELCOME

Description

After a natural disaster, the rapid delivery of temporary shelter and survival kits is critical. If ground transportation is feasible for the delivery of the survival kit, it will be utilized. Otherwise, an airdrop would be the next best choice. In either mode, the size and the weight factors would dominate the number of packages that may be transported and delivered promptly. Our goal is to design and prototype a portable and collapsible survival kit for these intense situations.
