Embodiment Construction
[0059]Referring initially to FIG. 1, a Relocatable Habitat Unit (RHU) in accordance with the present invention is shown and is generally designated 10. As shown, the RHU 10 includes a plurality of individual panels, of which the generic panel 12 (sometimes hereinafter referred to as a wall panel) is 15 exemplary. The panel 12 is substantially flat, and is rectangular in shape with a width (“W”) of approximately four feet and a length (“L”) of approximately eight feet (i.e. the panel 12 is a 4×8). Alternatively, a panel 12 may be dimensioned as a 4×4. The depth of the panel 12 can vary slightly but, in general, will only be two or three inches. Preferably, the panel 12 is made of a light-weight composite polymer foam type material, such as expanded polystyrene foam panels having a density of approximately two pounds per cubic foot, with pultruded fiberglass reinforced plastic beams framing the foam core.

Abstract
A field-deployable construction set for the assembly of a Relocatable Habitat Unit (RHU), used for simulating real world environments without costly construction expenses. The various panels, supports, and accessories used to construct an RHU include male (M) and female (F) lock connectors located on their respective peripheries and a frame constructed from a plurality vertical corner posts and horizontal beams provide the user with innumerable options for floor plans and building design, further providing significant options for reconfiguration of floor, ceiling, and wall panels without having to disassemble the structure. The exterior composition of the expanded polymer foam is customizable to provide a realistic environment for high quality training in a versatile system that is deployable by truck or aircraft and can be assembled with only a single tool.
