Hi,My name is Barbara Nazarewicz and I’m a landscape artcitechure student at University of California Davis.Currently I’m working for UC Davis in Collaboration with the nonprofit Save the Children on developing a design of a template school for West Sumatra to be replicated throughout the country. Our objective is to design a structure that will have modular properties, is earthquake proof, uses locally available resources [preferably a byproduct of some industry], is easy to construct and maintain, and affordable.I’m interested in using shipping containers to construct the classrooms.I was wondering if you were able to contact me and answer few questions:1.Are shipping containers available in Indonesia?2.How much would it cost to adapt the containers for classrooms? [we think that a typical school would have 4 classrooms that can seat 40 students]3.How easy it is to modify the containers?4.How does the modification influence the structural strength of the containers? [ is the structure earthquake safe?]Please do not hesitate to contact me via email [[email protected]]
