Abstract
Construction is arguably the most conservative field of technology. But building with traditional concrete, bricks and mortar is slow and energy-intensive. And it requires skilled labor and materials which are not as readily available as most people think. These problems become especially poignant when dealing with sudden, large scale homelessness caused by a natural disaster. An innovative building technique using stackable, sand reinforced polyester bricks offers a solution to these problems.
