Black Diamond Group provided a self-contained 10’x31’ purpose-built modular home designed to house two media personnel during a three day survival simulation in support of the Queensland Government’s Survive 3 project.
Black Diamond worked diligently, yet promptly, over the course of seven days to provide the Queensland Government with an ideal space for their survival simulation.
By refurbishing an existing unit, Black Diamond Group provided the project with a unique economical advantage, seamless installation and minimal disturbances at site, saving the client time and money.

Innovation + cost-effectiveness
The Queensland State Government had an urgent need for temporary accommodation to house two disaster simulation survivors in support of their Get Ready Queensland Survive 3 project. The Get Ready Queensland initiative is an annual program organised by the Government Department of Local Community Recovery and Resilience to help make Queensland the most disaster resilient state in Australia.
The 3.0m x 9.44m self-contained modular unit was a refurbished existing unit, which was ideal for the Government’s budget and provided the project with a unique economic advantage. Black Diamond removed the original steel front exterior and replaced it with 8 mm clear Perspex in order to provide a clear view into the activities of the survival simulation, which was effective in drawing attention to the unit and the Survive 3 campaign.
This project was completed in just 7 days, which provided the client cost and time savings, a seamless installation and minimal disturbances at site.
