Daedalus structures are manufactured using advanced composite technology.  The panels  permit fabrication of a single structural unit of approximately 14 square meters within hours by a team of two to three people using basic hand tools.

Each structure is comprised of polymer composite panels measuring  1.25 meters by 1.25 meters, weighing approximately 12 kilograms.

Basic Structural Unit
(Single Unit - 14 m2)

Each basic structural unit consists of approximately 50 panels. The panels are assembled three panels in width to form a structure 2.5 meters high by 3.75 meters on each side. The area of the basic structural unit is approximately 14 square meters or 150 square feet.  Floor panels are also included to provide a clean, safe, and easily maintained environment. 

In addition to the basic structural unit, Daedalus designed a single unit of approximately  19 square meters that is very suitable for family shelter for disaster response.
