The International Red Cross listed the three relief priorities in Environmental Disasters: food, medicine and shelter. Providing shelter allows quickly returning to normal life, and keeps families connected. Furthermore establishing the routine stimulates the reconstruction of affected areas. This work presents a quick solution aligned to concepts of sustainability, green building and waste recycling, to catch up affected families needs on environmental disasters events. In order to provide shelter in a very short time, a sandwich panel composed of a bamboo honeycomb core was developed, in a new approach of bamboo utilization, and recycled material panels glued with castor oil resin. The material used are natural and non pollutant, recycled, low-carbon, low-cost housing and low energy consumption. A sandwich panel was developed and its mechanical behavior analyzed for building applications. The main objective of this work was developing a resistant material, ecologic, sustainable, using residues, and local, ingenious and natural materials, that must be strong enough to substitute conventional materials and, at the same time economically feasible, to address emergency sheltering. As a result, a modular shelter is proposed, in which the minimum module is like a core house nevertheless it can be expanded turn in a permanent home. The shelter is also portable as it can be collected and transferred to other places, wherever needed.
