Proposal for the Conceptual Structural Prototype of Emergency Shelter for the Vulnerable Rohingya Community of Coastal Camp of Bangladesh
The structural design of emergency shelters is important to ensure sustenance for the post-disaster period of the vulnerable Rohingya community. Bangladesh ranks fifth most disaster at-risk country and is more vulnerable due to giving shelter to 943,000 Rohingya inhabits until October 2022. This paper aims to propose a conceptual prototype for the emergency shelter considering both architectural and structural aspects. The structure will be resilient with a permanent and stable core to withstand cyclone hazards, while the dwellers can easily construct additional bamboo structures in the post-disaster period for temporary living. Locally available bamboo and structurally stable steel beams supplied by the government or non-profit organizations will be used as primary building materials. The methodology includes mixed methods of site selection and analysis, structure considerations, and conceptual design proposal. The findings will show the structural strength of the proposed prototype due to the effect of a cyclone. The scope of this paper is a further stable shelter based on the given prototype that the users can use for a more permanent structure with a higher lifecycle and resilience. The lack of a physical survey and real-scale structural analysis of the proposed design are identified as the paper's limitations. In conclusion, it can be said that the post-disaster shelter issue of the vulnerable Rohingya community should be tackled with expertise. A simulation-based prototype with a stable core and low-cost sustainable bamboo will give assurance to the temporary shelter.
