One-Joint: A Cost Effective Solution to Improve the Construction of Disaster Relief Shelters

据联合国难民署称，2014年，每天约有4.2万名男女老少成为难民、寻求庇护者或在自己的国家流离失所。因此，对临时和过渡性住房的需要正在加强。然而，国际救济机构提供的传统住房包往往无法发挥作用，无法充分满足难民和其他有需要的人的经济、社会和环境需要。Taylor Garfit有限公司设计了一种小型、轻便、经济有效的联合系统，可以集成到避难所套件中，并用作其他救灾解决方案中分布式框架结构的替代方案。

According to UNHCR, ~42,000 men, women and children become refugees, asylum seeker or were displaced in their own countries every day in 2014. Consequently the need for temporary and transitional shelters is intensifying. However traditional shelter kits, provided by international relief agencies, are often unable to function and respond adequately to the economic, social and environmental requirements of refugees and other people in need.Taylor Garfit Ltd has designed a small, lightweight and cost effective joint system that can be incorporated into shelter kits and used as an alternative to distributing frame structures present in other disaster relief solutions.
