Water Pavillion : Disaster Shelter +

Providing immediate shelter is very important at times of disasters. Providing clean water is also important. With the lack of clean water the disaster victims will lead to a bad sanitation and will be exposed to another disasters, dehydration, skin diseases, and many more. Providing both shelter and clean water  at the same time will be very helpful before the main help programs arrive and also can be use as a transitional shelter before they built their own house.

Our idea comes up when we saw one of the truck from the drink bottled company in out town. A mid size truck can contain about 300 gallon of drink water, with the same exact size bottle and crate. And what can we do about it ?...

Bottle Crates can become an elevated semi-permanent floor and walls. Combine with traditional bamboo / wood construction and joints it can become a roof for the shelter. Traditional construction is used because there are local wisdom on every location, this local technology is ‘in the blood’ of the society, and it is wise to use them so they can create togetherness to face the disaster. By reusing the remaining material of the damage houses, roof tiles, woods, bamboo mat, traditional textile we can have a lot of local materials. This process will also encourage the disaster victim (healthy ones) to start their life all over again. Bamboo mat or laminated wood can cover the elevated crates floor The Crates wall can also become bottled water storages, which will provide clean and drinking water every day.

Combine with clean water installation system, the crates can be transform into water tower structure. This installation will produce clean water from rain water, river water and also water from damaged well. Combine with bio-tank can also create a very good mass bathroom.

All of that can be pack in three mid size truck that can access remote disaster area. Or can be carried with a helicopters. So this first package will create a Water Pavillion that will provide shelter as well as clean water. We are trying to make budget scheme as cheap as we can plan, one of the budget scheme is by cooperating with local / nearest drink-bottle companies to support this design as part  or their Company Social Responsibilty, with that cooperation we can use remaining budget to complete the shelter with other equipments such as water treatment device, pump, solar cells etc.
