A compactable and portable shelter can include side panels, front and rear panels roof panels and a spine panel that are hingedly connected by continuous hinges in a manner that enables the panels to collapse onto each other and into a small profile unit for ease of transport, deployment and recovery. A window and door can be formed in at least one front or rear wall panel. Support brackets can hold wall panels upright at ninety degrees with respect to floor panels. A solar power system can provide electrical power for lighting and electronic device charging to occupants of the shelter. Adjustable legs connected at exterior corners of the base can level the left base flow panel and the right base floor panel. Panels can be thermally insulated.

The disclosure presents a composite column formwork which utilizes a fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) stay in place container which incorporates horizontally coplanar support chairs bonded to the interior surface, closed ties bonded to the support chairs and a plurality of longitudinal rebar enforcements bonded to the closed ties. All of the components in a preferred embodiment are formed of a fiberglass material.
