These photos show the steel grid that make up the roof support for the safe haven in the camp. The safe haven is designed as a temporary place people can go to if the camp is attacked while under construction. It is a shipping container surrounded by Hescos (Huge sand filled cubes of steel mesh and fabric) with a steel roof support that will have Hescos placed on top.
This is the second attempt at the roof, the first steel support made collapsed when they filled the Hescos with sand so the contractor had to take it apart and rebuild it again. Three days later, they finished making the steel grid structure and were about to lift it into place when we stopped them. We told the contractor that the crane they had could not safely lift the steel in one piece. Either the steel would bend and buckle or at worst the crane would fall over. After much deliberation it was decided to cut the steel grid into three sections.
