The powerful earthquake in Turkey destroyed tens of thousands of buildings in Turkey and Syria, displacing millions of people for nearly a month. Some victims had to sleep in flimsy tents, factories, train cars or greenhouses.
Turkey’s Kahramanmaras province was the epicenter of the quake. In the local mountain village, residents are struggling to keep warm on a cold night. Although the residents have tents, they are too thin to keep out the cold. A disaster victim said that he was worried that the freezing weather in the mountains would lead to more deaths. “Our basic needs are shelter first. Tents will not work here, and we will freeze to death.”
The Turkey-Syria earthquake touched everyone’s hearts! The container houses used during the World Cup were reused and transported to the earthquake area to shelter the victims.
The Turkish government and dozens of local rescue organizations have launched large-scale rescue operations. The Turkish government said that it has deployed 5,400 container houses as shelters for the victims and distributed more than 200,000 tents, but the disaster situation is still not optimistic.
It is reported that the transformed container house can accommodate 4 people and is equipped with independent bathroom and kitchen, which is convenient to use! So what are the benefits of container houses in earthquake relief?
1. Safe and stable, strong earthquake resistance
During an earthquake, many people have no place to live, and the container house is a frame steel structure, which has good earthquake resistance. The container house can be used as a safe haven to reduce secondary damage.
2. Can be put into use quickly
The roof, ground, and circuit systems of container houses are completely prefabricated in factories, which shortens the time for transportation, installation, and construction. The resettlement of the affected people after the earthquake is very urgent, and the use of container houses can achieve quick occupancy. After the container house is used up, it can be recycled, and no construction waste will be generated, resulting in waste of resources.
3. High living comfort
Before there was no container house, tents were often used to avoid natural disasters. Compared with container houses, the safety and comfort were much worse. The container house can be equipped with toilets, bathrooms, etc. After the water and electricity are connected, it is no different from living at home. It is clean and tidy, and the comfort is high!
