Claim 10

The transportable structure kit of claim 1, further comprising rail members affixed to a bottom surface of the planar floor section to allow for forklift carrying of the container.

Claim 11

The transportable structure kit of claim 1, wherein the planar floor section, planar side walls, planar end walls, and a planar ceiling section comprise unitary sections.

Claim 12

A transportable structure kit for use in assembling a housing structure, comprising: unitary exterior container panel wall sections attached together to form a completely enclosed transportable container in a transportation mode, the unitary exterior container panel wall sections comprising a planar floor section, planar side walls, planar end walls, and a planar ceiling section, and the exterior container panel wall sections being adapted to be detachably attached together to form the completely enclosed transportable container in a transportation mode, and wherein the planar floor section and at least the two planar side walls are adapted to be attached together to form a floor of the housing structure in a housing structure mode, and wherein in the housing structure mode, the planar floor section and at least the two planar side walls are attached together to form a floor of the housing structure; said exterior container panel wall sections in the transportation mode attach to one another with a plurality of bolts such that prior to assembly of the housing structure, said plurality of attachment bolts are adapted to be removed so that the planar side walls may be removed from the transportable structure kit and placed on respective opposite sides of said planar floor section to form at least a portion of the floor in the housing structure; a plurality of interior panel sections and other components necessary to form the housing structure placed within the completely enclosed transportable container, the interior panel sections and other used in assembling the housing structure; and means on corners of the enclosed transportable container adapted to allow the transportable container to be hoisted and moved.

Claim 13

A transportable structure kit for use in assembling a housing structure, comprising: unitary exterior container panel wall sections attached together to form a completely enclosed transportable container in a transportation mode, the unitary exterior container panel wall sections comprising a planar floor section, planar side walls, planar end walls, and a planar ceiling section, and the exterior container panel wall sections being adapted to be detachably attached together to form the completely enclosed transportable container in a transportation mode, and wherein the planar floor section and at least the two planar side walls are adapted to be attached together to form a floor of the housing structure in a housing structure mode, and wherein in the housing structure mode, the planar floor section and at least the two planar side walls are attached together to form a floor of the housing structure; said exterior container panel wall sections in the transportation mode attach to one another with a plurality of bolts such that prior to assembly of the housing structure, said plurality of attachment bolts are adapted to be removed so that the planar side walls may be removed from the transportable structure kit and placed on respective opposite sides of said planar floor section to form at least a portion of the floor in the housing structure; a plurality of interior panel sections and other components necessary to form the housing structure placed within the completely enclosed transportable container, the interior panel sections and other used in assembling the housing structure; and means on corners of the enclosed transportable container adapted to allow the transportable container to be hoisted and moved.
