Not sure you can call this shelter "expedient" but I could see it as an alternate shelter for those with land who want storage or "remote" camp sites.
A while back we discussed using 20-30-40 ft shipping containers as shelters. These are much smaller but have the added advantage of storage (un-built kits) and portability (pallet loads).
If the terrain allows, I could see one of these used as a storm shelter.
