Expandable Portable Shelter and Structures of Multiple Expandable Portable Shelters
A multicon structure comprising six or twelve expandable portable shelters (EPSs) characterized by equal depth dimensions extending in the direction of the structure length, and each EPS having two faces that are transverse to the structure length. Each EPS comprises two sets of panels, each set of panels including a floor panel, a ceiling panel, side panels, and an end panel. Each set of panels folding out from a corresponding face. Each EPS may be characterized by a depth that is a unit fractional amount of an intermodal shipping container length. Each EPS having corner post assemblies comprising a tubular stiffening structure, a hinge mount feature, and a panel interface feature. The outer panel having a gasket positioned such that, when the EPS is in a collapsed state, a watertight seal is formed between the gasket and the panel interface feature.
