Abstract

The paper focuses on the structural analysis of the “Multipurpose Shelter - Type 2” (T2 MP), designed and prototyped by the authors during the research activities of the European collaborative project S(P)EEDKITS. Research institutes, universities, non-profit organizations and manufacturers designed novel shelters concepts, medical care resources and other facilities provided in case of emergency. Specifically, this contribution proposes an optimized solution of the tent structure, in order to meet the UNICEF criteria for collective tents.
