Preparedness addresses the strategy in disaster management that allows the
implementation of successful operational response immediately after a disaster.
With speed as the main driver, product design for humanitarian aid purposes is a
key factor of success in situations of high uncertainty and urgency. Within this
context, the objective of the project is to design a telecommunications container
in the SolidWorks 3D CAD system as part of a group of containers that serve the
purpose of immediate response to global disasters. The telecommunications
container includes all the necessary equipment to establish a communication
center in the theater within the first seventy-two hours of humanitarian
operations. The design focuses on defining the topology of the various parts of
equipment by taking into consideration factors of serviceability, functionality,
human-product interaction, universal design language, energy consumption and
the interrelationship with the other containers.
