Just been working on this as an extension to another idea wall insulation / shelter . I wondered if there was anything similar int hhexayurt design history

First Design for Brick Wall Insulation & Cladding that Folds out to be Reused as a Temporary or Disaster Shelter

Leading on from the Cabinz Project idea of a Draft proposal for Design of Insulated Panels installed as Shelter Wall Insulation, that can be Re-used as Shelters in the event of a Disaster Situation 

This has lead to a Design for Brick Wall Insulation & Cladding that Folds out to be Reused as a Temporary or Disaster Shelter

 It consists of 5 sheets of 8' x 4' building material.
 The 5 are ideally insulated, such as aluminium sided rigid foam , (like kingspan / celotex)  . Otherwise Mgo fire board, waterproofed plywood  / osb could also be used.

The 5th sheet must be stronger as it is used for the load bearing floor on which the occupant/s will sleep.

Alternatively, three  8 x 4' sheets can be used (instead of 5)  and the side doors can be made of a waterproof fabric.

metal sided wall kinspan sandwich panel (with sheet of insulation and  3 or 6mm play on top to insulate occupant from steel sheet )
10mm thick mgo board (preferably with a thin frame & centre beam for support), plywood or osb could also be used.

Forgive my crude model in pics below:

The single sheet on the left of pic represents the wall to which the folded away structrure would be attached, permanently or temporarliy, depending on the design type
