How Recovery Huts Work
How the System Works
These durable and nesting modular parts serve as a single adaptable system sheltering both ‘emergency’ and ‘transitional’ housing needs after disaster strikes and can reduce the delay and costly redundancy of the current two-stage setup and take-down processes.
The basic 85 square feet hut is divided into four 60 pound sections and are available with up to four insect-proof venting door panels that allow connecting to adjacent huts for a variety of family clusters and village layouts. A long list of optional accessories is also available.
Modular Options
Shown here are some simple elaborations of the basic hut system in its expanded form. Employing a few more modules now being developed allow for a huge expansion in building sizes and configurations – including second levels – for more complex building needs and functions.
Village Groupings
The hut groupings and clusters shown opposite give a general indication how Recovery Huts’ modular system allows a wide range of site layouts, different family, ethnic, cultural living patterns as well as for specialized medical triage, first aid, military outposts and HQ, community / governmental agency support facilities, and other uses requiring this kind of adaptability.
Recovery Huts is a not-for-profit corporation offering advanced sheltering for disasters and other emergencies, as well as a full range of multi-purpose shelters for homeless and prison-overflow housing, for first-responder fire fighters, oil cleanup crews, urban power brownout utility crews, for farm worker housing, immigration holding and health isolation huts, and many more.
