Natural Disasters in Indonesia sometimes are the result of human actions. Other than the deteriorating of climate, natural disasters can be defined as a Natural disaster when there are humans involved, mostly as a victim. Our capacity as human beings is to evade it when it happens and to minimize the effect after the occurance. To minimize the effect is to handle the situation as systematically, as effectively, and as efficiently as humanly possible. The handling of Post-Disaster situations is highly crucial because it involves unclarity, chaos, and mass panic. One of the first priority is to save as many lives as possible. A good and fast control of a situation can minimize casualties. One of the main element of Post-Disaster assesment are the SAR team. SAR’s responsibilities includes excavating for victims and survivors, axtrications of victims and survivors, aiding the victims and survivors, and to evacuate. The speed and response of the SAR team to arrive on the scene is affected by a few major elements, including coordination, mobilisation and transportation. Those factors are crucial because the SAR team are the first light of hope in any rescue operation. Technical or Non-Technical factors the SAR team usualy face is the mobilization of the personell and the equipment. Problems of mobility and transportation is mainly discussed in this Final Assignment Report. An unpredictable terrain, heavy equipments, and an unufficient system is always the main problem. In the end, the design is an equipment carrier which can also be used as a stretcher for human casualties.
