Plummeting temperatures are as a violent threat, and tents keeps not so good on the item, as this invention. Well insulated Jakob Christensen has completed his thesis in Civil Engineering foam padding at Aarhus School of Engineering. And in six months, he has developed a new type of emergency shelter with a parabolic, self-supporting construction and an extremely high degree of insulation.
- One can in principle survive by their own body heat so well insulated it is, says Jakob Christensen. Must casting idea is that earthquake victims will receive a mold and the two liquids are mixed together and become hard foam. "The shelter is lightweight and can sustain itself without pillars. And it is strong enough to withstand earthquakes, "explains Jakob Christensen. Cheap to produce The shelter is very material-saving and this means that we can afford to save more people in emergency situations. And Jacob invention can therefore be a very important addition to the clay and straw houses, which traditionally included in disaster areas. "It takes just one flying a number of molds into the hard-to-reach foam padding disaster area. Additionally, you only have access to the compressed liquids. This saves on the way many resoucer by reducing the need for traditional building materials, "he says. Hope it saves lives Now he hopes that the funds and relief organizations will inject money in the invention as distress can benefit foam padding from the new skumshelters. - I hope that here in the long term can be used and save a lot of lives in areas where people are threatened foam padding by cold, says Jakob Christensen.
