Abstract
A site-assembled emergency shelter has matching site-assembly portions (21) that can be juxtaposed adjacently for low-volume packaging for shipment and then assembled on site. A wide selection of sizes and shapes are included. For different shelter uses, objectives and preferences, different structural materials such as fiberglass, some aluminum alloys, some stainless-steel alloys and other materials can be selected for appearance, endurance, weight, strength, cost and other factors. Installation components such as ground anchors (10, 11, 18), air circulators (9), accesses (4, 5), handling members (8), flotation ballasts (12) and communications (13) are provided.
