Erection Instructions for Unheated Storage Shelter and Equipment Repair Shop in Polar Regions.

Abstract

An investigation of available commercial building systems showed that the Fold-A-Way building was inexpensive and easily erected, and could function as a heavy-equipment repair and maintenance shop or an unheated storage shelter when used in conjunction with building accessories developed by the Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory. These accessories are a timber foundation and entrance ramp, anchoring system, mobile foundation and floor system, heating system, electrical system, an equipment door cover, and a field erection boom. Erection procedures and instructions for a Fold-A-Way building and the accessories are presented in this Technical Note. (Author)
