P3
Expandable container house
One room, roughly twice the floor area once expanded
Overview
Side or dual expansion on site increases the floor area — offices, meeting rooms, exhibition and camp command posts.
For one wide room — camp command, meeting, clinic. If a compact fixed footprint suits the site better, compare P2; if the room must be crane-lifted as a finished box, compare P4.
