This is a project to deliver pre-fabricated unit buildings to the disaster area by using the standards of shipping containers. The structural frame has been redesigned to comply with regulations and eliminate unnecessary parts so that the building can be moved from temporary to permanent construction. The prototype traveled to Fukushima and Miyagi, and was finally donated to a volunteer support group in Ishinomaki.
