Disaster Evacuation Centers with multipurpose functions in three locations

Description

1. Three identical 6m x 9m buildings constructed with two bedrooms each to be used by families seeking temporary living space whilst reconstructing wind damaged housing

2. One large central multifunction room in each building to be used as a meeting space in times of disaster, DRR training venue or be used by families as additional living space if all other rooms are full

3. Wind resilient materials used: 0.38mm thick zinc roofing fastened using appropriate roofing screws

4. Raimansu and Fatubesi had no communal sanitation and so male and female sanitation facilities built with water connected from existing distribution network at these evacuation centers
