Emergency houses for disaster management.
Project Abstract / Summary : India has been traditionally vulnerable to natural disaster on account of its unique geo-climatic conditions.Floods,droughts,cyclone,earthquake and landslides have been a reccurent phenomena.About 60% of the landmass is prone to earthquake of various intensities;over 40 million hectares is prone to floods;about 8% of the total arear is prone to cyclones and 68% of the area is susceptible for drought.It is really an unfortunate and undesirable situation that in our country where more than 6 crores people are affected by disasters every year.Even as substantial scientific and material progress is made,the loss of life and property due to disaster has not decreased.In this project the objective is to reduce life and property losses and the construction of emergency or mobile houses for the quick rehabilitation of collapsed building from the cause of disaster. The plan emphasizes the fact that development cannot be sustainable without mitigation being built into development process.A emergency houses are the pre-frabricated structures built in a factory on a permenantly attached chassis before being transported to site which is useful for disaster management.
