Concrete Cloth?
Rapid Concrete Infrastructure
Concrete Canvas manufacture a ground breaking material technology called Concrete Cloth that allows concrete to be used in a completely new way. Concrete Cloth was originally developed for the award winning Concrete Canvas Shelters, a building in a bag that requires only water and air for construction.
CCS have a range of applications in both civil and military sectors, as emergency key infrastructure for distaster relief or frontline operations.
Pretty neat idea and is available now!
… as the green future unfolds.

That is absolutely amazing and BRILLIANT! Of course you’d need water, but think of all the applications! I just love the way you can hook them together. Hey, I’m not kidding. If I had land with water and sewer, this is what I’d go for… incredible! Thank you Linda!

I mentioned it to my husband last night and he mentioned “infrastructure.” But that’s the point isn’t it. Assuming one had a well of drinkable water, sewage disposal, and a generator heck you’re off the grid and could just add and add and add rooms mansion style
Seriously, I understand the military and/or emergency implications, but as far as housing it’s completely viable.

Wow, this is really efficient. It is easy to assemble and very durable. Good to hear a solution for people victims of catastrophes who need temporary shelter. Not a bad idea for long term use as well, I have seen many renovations that made it convenient or even a make a person proud to live in.
