Abstract

Abstract Transportable module shaped as a rectangular box having a floor panel, a roof panel, long side-wall panels and short sidewall panels. The long side-wall panels are at one side hinged to the floor panel, to at least a second long panel, which in the folded out position can constitute a side-wall of the building, which second panel and/or the next panel is at or near the other edge hinged to a third panel, which is with its upper edge hinged to said roof panel. The floor space of the building is determined at said floor panel and the surfaces of the long side-wall panels folded out into the horizontal position. Other necessary parts for constructing the building can be contained within the box.
