Affordable Housing

With its expertise in designing shelters, homes and camps, Duramax has developed an innovative and affordable range of housing using vinyl as a key building component. These single-story shelter homes provide safe and secure accommodation and are available in a variety of standard sizes.

The assembly is fast, simple, clean and safe, and the shelters can be easily disassembled and relocated as needed.

The Affordable Housing shelters are made with double sheet walls. The exterior sheet, made of PVC vinyl, makes the shelter resistant to rust, rot and mildew, and ensures the shelter will never require painting. The interior wall is made of cement board, MDF, laminated MDF or pre-painted steel sheet. The walls are placed with spacing to provide a pocket of air between them; this air pocket acts as a barrier and provides basic thermal insulation for the shelter.

The shelter’s columns are reinforced with steel for additional strength and to allow for easy mounting of shelves. Each shelter is built on strong steel foundation that can be placed on a plywood, gravel or concrete base.

The Affordable Housing shelters are designed to handle up to 20 pounds per square foot of snow load and are wind-tested for winds of up to 115 mph.

The most important features to consider when choosing entry-level shelter homes are durability, size and value. Duramax’s Affordable Housing from TSSC offers by far the best combination of all of these
