The amazing inflatable concrete building!

Wired News reports that two British Engineers, William Crawford and Peter Brewin, have developed a new type of concrete emergency structure. The inflatable dome serves as a more secure alternative to tents and a cheaper alternative to prefabricated structures.

"They've come up with a design that integrates plastic to inflate the structure and doubles as the inner skin; a wicking fabric that draws the water in and an external resin of concrete which holds the thing together: Concrete Canvas is triple clever."

Triple clever indeed.
