Design

This little house is designed solely as a temporary shelter.

  • It is quickly constructed.
  • It uses components already on site.
  • The structure is intended to be dismantled and its components incorporated in finishing another building project.

Components

  • 3 16'x16' prebuilt roof frames
  • 37 2"x6"x16' beams
  • 74 3" screws
  • 115 hay bales (about 14"x18"x4')
  • 10 3'x17' barn roof panels

Building these modular roof frames is described in instructions for the Workshop and the Hab Lab. Hay is cut and baled on the farm - in this case planned for use as wall insulation for the Hab Lab. A stack of roof panels was on site already, in anticipation of their use to finish the Hab Lab and Workshop roofs.
