Abstract (en)

The disclosure relates to an accommodation module comprising a frame (13,14,15,16,17) supporting sheet metal panels (18,40,41). The side panels (18) are secured to upper and lower longitudinal members (14,15,) of the frame and are formed with vertically extending corrugations spaced apart along the walls to stiffen the walls. A plurality of vertically extending stud members (20) extend on the inner sides of the side panels between the upper and lower longitudinal members of the frame and are disposed in troughs in the corrugations of the side panels with all round clearance from the side panels. The studs provide mounting means to support lining panels (22) for the interior of the module spaced from the side panels whereby the side panels can deflect to a limited extent without engaging the stud members or lining panels. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
