Survival And Emergency Shelters
For Remote Projects

Protect work crews against life-threatening weather on remote projects with survival shelters from Alaska Structures.

Survival Shelters

Engineered Fabric Buildings for Temporary Emergency Shelters

Imagine that you’re part of a small exploration crew collecting rock samples for a mine feasibility study. Before finishing your last round of drilling, an unexpected storm rolls in and creates near white-out conditions. The temperature drops below freezing. Visibility is limited to 5 to 10 feet, and snow accumulates quickly. The base camp is a mile and a half away.

Do you risk traversing the rocky and uncertain terrain back to base camp, or do you retreat to the bright orange survival shelter you set up earlier that day, shelter in place and safely wait out the storm? Having the proper survival shelter on hand is crucial if waiting it out is the best decision.
