Abstract

Conceiving of and selecting concepts with the goal of translating practical users' requirements into a collection of shelter concepts. When faced with extreme weather conditions, the first and most basic requirement is to safeguard the displaced population from external agents. A more efficient alternative honeycomb production method must be pursued in light of the rising costs of electricity and raw materials. The ultimate goal of the cooperative development is to produce sandwich panels that meet technical criteria, are lighter in weight, and are more cost-effective when compared to currently available composite or metal alternatives, among other things. Cold processing is used to adhere the honeycomb preparation to the composite skin, which is made of aluminium alloy. The purpose of this investigation is to establish whether oil palm and epoxy aluminium honeycomb panels are suitable for use in the building of a shelter structure. Furthermore, the goal of this research is to develop a medium for building shelter out of oil palm debris and epoxy aluminium. The next step is to characterise the structure and toughness of a composite made of oil palm and epoxy aluminium alloy.
