S.A.F.E. An emergency project experimentation

The proposed paper describes a project research activity on the theme of temporary housing modules needed to cope with emergency situations. The product is designed to be placed in the segment between the provision of first aid shelters (currently solved with field tents) and new housing. In the ca...
