Perimeter protection: The proposed solution is a barrier with sand bags positioned around the perimeter of the shelter. The bags are made from plastic sacks available in the local market.

The plastic bags have to be placed inside the shelter to protect the plastic from the UV radiation and hold down the shade net walls.
