An emergency shelter structure is disclosed for use where people are displaced from their homes as the result of some catastrophe. The inventive shelter can be erected entirely without hand tools or power tools in less than 20 minutes. It is comprised of plastic panels which are joined together using push anchors, fasteners which permit rapid and permanent engagement of adjoining panels. Bed platforms are included as part of the assembly. In advanced embodiments, solar arrays are provided for harvesting solar energy for use as electricity and uni-directional heating apparatus is molded into the floor panel.

1. A method for assembling an emergency shelter at a shelter erection site by two persons without tools in twenty minutes or less comprising the steps of: A. removing a back panel subassembly from a stack of polymeric panel subassemblies comprised of a floor panel subassembly, having primary and secondary surfaces, two side panel subassemblies, a back panel subassembly, a front panel subassembly, a roof subassembly, one or more bed platform subassemblies, and a plurality of push anchors,B. locating said back panel along a longer side of said floor panel,C. tilting and raising said back panel into vertical position on said secondary surface of said floor panel over locating pins aligning thereby pre-formed holes in said back panel with pre-formed holes in said floor panel for reception of push anchors,D. inserting and fully depressing push anchors through pre-formed holes in said back panel into said floor panel causing full expansion of said push anchors thereby drawing surfaces of said polymeric panels into intimate contact and fixing said back panel in vertical position,E. tilting and raising a first side panel into vertical position and fastening with push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,F. mating said first side panel using said push anchors with said back panel along their adjacent vertical edges,G. tilting and raising a second side panel into vertical position and fastening with push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,H. installing one or more bed platform subassemblies in horizontal position fixedly fastening said bed platforms to said first and second side panels and to said back panel using push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,I. tilting and raising a front wall panel into vertical position and mating said front wall panel with said first and second side panels using push anchors along their respective adjacent vertical edges,J. lifting said roof panel into position over the tops of the vertical panel subassemblies such that flanges projecting downward from said roof panel lie adjacent the vertical panel subassemblies, and inserting push anchors through aligned pre-formed holes attaching roof panel to said vertical panel subassemblies. 2. A method for assembling an emergency shelter at a shelter erection site by two persons without tools in twenty minutes or less comprising the steps of: A. removing selectively a front panel subassembly from a stack of polymeric panel subassemblies, comprised of a floor panel subassembly, having primary and secondary surfaces, two side panel subassemblies, a back panel subassembly, a front panel subassembly, a roof subassembly, one or more bed platform subassemblies, and a plurality of push anchors,B. locating said front panel along a longer side of said floor panel,C. tilting and raising said front panel into vertical position on said secondary surface of said floor panel over locating pins aligning thereby pre-formed holes in said front panel with pre-formed holes in said floor panel for reception of push anchors,D. inserting and fully depressing push anchors through pre-formed holes in said front panel into said floor panel causing full expansion of said push anchors thereby drawing surfaces of said polymeric panels into intimate contact and fixing said front panel in vertical position,E. tilting and raising a first side panel into vertical position and fastening with push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,F. mating said first side panel using said push anchors with said front panel along their adjacent vertical edges,G. tilting and raising a second side panel into vertical position and fastening with push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,H. installing one or more bed platform subassemblies in horizontal position fixedly fastening said bed platforms to said first and second side panels and to said back panel using push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,I. tilting and raising a back wall panel into vertical position and mating said back wall panel with said first and second side panels using push anchors along their respective adjacent vertical edges,J. lifting said roof panel into position over the tops of the vertical panel subassemblies such that flanges projecting downward from said roof panel lie adjacent the vertical panel subassemblies, and inserting push anchors through aligned pre-formed holes attaching roof panel to said vertical panel subassemblies. 3. A method for assembling an emergency shelter for human habitation at a shelter erection site by two persons without tools in ten minutes or less comprising the steps of: A. removing a front or back panel subassembly from a stack of plasticized hollow filled polymeric panel subassemblies comprised of a floor panel subassembly, having primary and secondary surfaces, two side panel subassemblies, a back panel subassembly, a front panel subassembly, a roof subassembly, one or more bed platform subassemblies, and a plurality of push anchors,B. locating said front or back panel along a longer side of said floor panel,C. tilting and raising said front or back panel into vertical position on said secondary surface of said floor panel over locating pins aligning thereby pre-formed holes in said front or back panel with pre-formed holes in said floor panel for reception of push anchors,D. inserting and fully depressing push anchors through pre-formed holes in said front or back panel into said floor panel causing full expansion of said push anchors thereby drawing surfaces of said polymeric panels into intimate contact and fixing said front or back panel in vertical position,E. tilting and raising a first side panel into vertical position and fastening with push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,F. mating said first side panel using said push anchors with said front or back panel along their adjacent vertical edges,G. tilting and raising a second side panel into vertical position and fastening with push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,H. installing one or more bed platform subassemblies in horizontal position fixedly fastening said bed platforms to said first and second side panels and to said back panel using push anchors in the manner prescribed in D. above,I. tilting and raising a front wall panel into vertical position and mating said front wall panel with said first and second side panels using push anchors along their respective adjacent vertical edges,J. lifting said roof panel into position over the tops of the vertical panel subassemblies such that flanges projecting downward from said roof panel lie adjacent the vertical panel subassemblies, and inserting push anchors through aligned pre-formed holes attaching roof panel to said vertical panel subassemblies.
