Why not use 20' & 40' SHIPPING CONTAINERS (try overlook the Cabal stigma), because they are totally weatherproof, secure & rodent proof & commonly are built into multi-story homes, even. Frame a front door and window in the front container opening, stake the steel container doors open, top those off with a sloped roof and that gives you an open, covered porch for using a propane BBQ or generator. Insulate, ventilate, add a small wood or pellet stove, a power source, composting toilet & interior water tank, sink, some basic electric and you have TOTALLY safe, secure and weatherproof shelter. Easily transported to the disaster site by roll-off truck w/ forklift. REUSEABLE. Won't blow over, set on railroad ties.
Cut down some pallet racks & turn them into adjustable bunk beds. Later cut in some windows, saving the metal cutouts as storm shutters - hinge those topside and brace open, close in bad weather.
Tell the building inspectors to go to hell - it's pre-engineered.

Good idea 💡
Lots of designs online -- with a little imagination, they can be pretty sweet 😍

They are sturdy, and can be modified with a chop demo saw or a torch real fast!

I've even read that some people bury them beside a hill to make a hobbit house. What fun! Two containers back to back would make 40'x16' -- nice 640sf living space 👍

Containers have to be reinforced if buried because they are only designed to stack with the corners bearing weight, and will collapse with as little as 2' of dirt on them and they rust, but I think they are more ideal put side by side, walls cut to desire, welded together, even stacked with structural steel posts & such, but I don't like stairs much anymore...too hard dragging stuff up and down, so I'd go for the lateral approach, making sure the site location has excellent drainage, too. Thing is, a single 20' or 40' can be transported easy on roll-back trucks & converted FAST to emergency shelters and provide secure quarters, where one can sleep secure with a locked door such as a standard door framed or even sliding patio door, not like a tent that can blow over or be cut open with a knife. They are IDEAL and can quickly be insulated and modified. Need heat, put in a woodstove and pipe it out the wall, done.

You're really on to something there. NC needs these -- I'll send this information to the lady that's doing the shed homes for displaced people. I thought the containers would be more expensive than the sheds, but they're not. They could do two containers back to back for less than they're spending on those sheds.

People do need to "think outside the box" (pun intended) when it comes to natural disasters & emergencies.

Shipping containers make the best emergency shelters (for earthquake recovery, wildfire recovery, flood recovery, etc) to be on site at their damaged property while rebuilding. Tell the building inspectors to Go To Hell - they are structurally sound and safe.

Bridge out? Then try using decommissioned Railroad Flat Cars because they too are already structurally sound and can handle their rated weight loads if installed properly, which in most cases can be done fast with a crane.

If I was the head of FEMA I woulda had people's heads spinning at how fast I woulda had tens of thousands of emergency homes delivered to the effected communities and how fast I woulda had temporary or even permanent bridges up using flatbed railcars.

That's how I woulda run the operation.
Heads woulda spun, and I've done flood disaster relief before.

👇 That's a flat railcar bridge.

LOVE IT!!! 😍
Ol Cowboy for head of disaster relief!!! Maybe call it DRA - disaster relief agency, or similar. FEMA has a well-deserved nefarious reputation that it can never recover from (plus, it has that pesky name 'federal' in there).

My engineer brother used to say "If you have a problem, the reason you still have it is because you haven't thought about it long enough; when you think about it you'll come up with a solution." Yours is an excellent solution, and could be implemented as a standard in disasters like hurricane relief, not to mention poverty-riddled areas as well.

Meanwhile, all gov't bureaucrats MUST GO; only compassionate intelligent problem solvers should be in any position of authority. No more illicit gains, greased palms, or backroom deals; only those with pure hearts and intentions.

You've really got me thinking; these ideas are so simple, yet so profound. Now to spread them to the ppl in NC who are making a difference.

Blessings, OC ☺️✨🙏

Your Brother is 100% correct.
WE THE PEOPLE do better at everything, anyhow.

Just need the fake "corps" posing as government totally out the way and all this evil gone. Government OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE again.

That's at least a 95% reduction. 😃👍
