The document discusses emergency housing and describes several key terms related to modular and prefabricated housing construction. It defines terms like large-scale, modular, prefabrication, concurrently, ready to use, assemble, warehouse, mobile, vital, simultaneously, storehouse, partition, and portable that are important for understanding how to quickly construct emergency housing from pre-built modular units. The goal is to be able to rapidly erect housing from standardized, prefabricated parts that can be built and stored concurrently and then assembled and erected simultaneously on-site when and where emergency housing is needed.

modular (adj) consisting of separate parts or units
prefabrication (n) built from parts which are made in
standard sizes so that they can be put together anywhere concurrently (adv) happening at the same time
ready to use (adj) available for immediate use
assemble (v) to put all the parts of something
together warehouse (n) a large building for storing large quantities of goods mobile (adj) not fixed in one position; easy to move and use in different places vital (adj) extremely important and necessary for something to succeed or exist simultaneously things that happen at exactly the (adv) same time storehouse (n) a building where things are stored
partition (n) a thin wall that separates one part of a
room from another portable (adj) something that can be easily moved
