LONDON 2017 EARTHQUAKE
A killer earthquake could hit London at any time, claiming untold numbers of lives and causing billions of pounds worth of damage.
Dr. Roger Musson of the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh said that a sub-sea fault under the Straits of Dover that has caused two large earthquakes in the past 700 years could strike again at any time, putting London in the firing line.
The geological fault has already generated relatively large earthquakes in 1382 and 1580 and there is a substantial risk that a similar-sized earthquake could occur again with severe consequences for the capital given that it rests on clay soil that is easily shaken.

K2
The K2 kontainer, is prepared to be an information center for the public and as well as a workspace and meetings for government members. The interior is characterized by a multifunctional space, and can easily adapt to various roles and situations.
Within the K2 are 8 big supplies deposits. These aWre a sort of glass capsules that allow you to store various utensils: preserves and canned food, rice, bean, Water, portable shelters and sleeping bags, first-Aid kit, portable toilet, translucent deposits that qualify your entire interior space. The access to these deposits, is done from outside of the K-box, it is not necessary to enter into the k2 to have access to these deposits.
Within the k2 we can also find propane cook, catalytic heater dining utensils, tools, toilet.
These containers are located on Level 1, 2 or 3 in order to provide a higher security. Each K2 has a capacity of 50 occupants, each K-BOX has at least two K2 kontainers.
Size: 25.00 length - 5.00 width - 5.00 height.

K3
This is basically a connection Kontainer.
This Kontainer allows an easy connection between the K2 public and K2 Government kontainers, increasing privacy and security between the two areas.
The K3 Kontainer consists of two flexible sleeves that fit and adapt into the K2.
Size: 12.00 length - 2.00 width - 5.00 height.

This structure can easily fit into the context of an urban environment, but can also be used in developing countries.
Temporary and portable structure
Easily transported by truck and installed in almost any environment, the K-BOX system provide renewable energy, a water filtration device from rain , food and water supplies, first-aids kit and solar storage battery.

Modular and evolutive structure
The K-BOX was designed for maximum operational flexibility.
If necessary, the K-BOX can be increased according to the type of disaster situation occurred due to its modular and evolutive system comprised of several autonomous modules - The KONTAINERS.
So it is possible to receive and help more people at once, and also stay longer in a disaster zone.

THE K-BOX consists of a set of multiple kontainers: K1 + K2 + K3. These modular kontainers are made up in a metallic structure and metallic panels that are partitioned by 5 x 2 meters frames.
As soon as it has been settled up, the K-BOX can function as a strategic communications center, field worker operations base and an unlimited number of other uses.
