Rush is an easy shelter to assemble and use. The frame is lightweight yet very rigid, it is held together by hardened steel corner braces. Each flat-packed Rush can be deployed by airlift or truck to the camp, one person can assemble the unit in less than 1 hour using a wrench and screwdriver. The detachable wall panel allows Rush to join with another unit to create a larger space, a perfect shelter for a small family.
