tin shack
Corrugated iron shelter
A tin shack is a crude dwelling with walls or roof made from corrugated metal sheeting.
The term evokes poverty and makeshift construction—shelters thrown together from whatever materials are available: They lived in a tin shack on the outskirts of town.
Tin shacks are associated with shanty towns, rural poverty, and temporary housing in developing regions.
