Abstract

A demountable structure system is disclosed. The demountable structure system may have a roof system positioned atop one or more structural panel(s) and a floor system positioned beneath one or more structural panels(s). The structural panels may have different shapes, configurations, and features, and may support the roof system in order to form a demountable structure. Alternatively, the roof system is omitted and a wall or other structure can be formed from the structural panels. Each structural panel may have other features, such as finish panels, fabric panels, accessory mounts, recessed lighting, electrical outlets, etc. Some structural panels have sound dampening features, such as to form portable musician's sound booth. Thus, a structure may be formed which is both readily disassembled, yet also sturdy.

The demountable structure of  claim 1 , wherein the first demountable structural panel comprises a first internal structure and the second demountable structural panel comprises a second internal structure, wherein the first internal structure and the second internal structure each comprise an inner panel, an outer panel, and an internal pocket therebetween. 
     
     
         4 . The demountable structure of  claim 3 , wherein the internal pocket comprises at least one of a wire chase, a ballast, an insulation material, or a sound dampening material. 
     
     
         5 . The demountable structure of  claim 4 , wherein the ballast comprises a bladder configured to hold a liquid. 
     
     
         6 . The demountable structure of  claim 1 , further comprising a demountable finish panel coupled to a first panel face of the first demountable structural panel. 
     
     
         7 . The demountable structure of  claim 1 , wherein the first joining member is a cam and the second joining member is a cam receiver. 
     
     
         8 . The demountable structure of  claim 1 , wherein the second demountable structural panel is a corner panel comprising a first section and a second section disposed at a first angle relative to the first section, wherein the second joining edge is comprised on the first section, and a third joining edge is comprised on the second section. 
     
     
         9 . The demountable structure of  claim 1 , wherein the first joining edge comprises a first electrical connector having a first connector shape and the second joining edge comprises a second electrical connector having a second connector shape that is complementary to the first connector shape, wherein the first electrical connector removably couples to the second electrical connector such that the first electrical connector is in electrical continuity with the second electrical connector. 
     
     
         10 . The demountable structure of  claim 1 , further comprising a roof system. 
     
     
         11 . The demountable structure of  claim 10 , wherein the roof system comprises at least one of a pyramid roof, a dome roof, a staggered triangle roof, or a louvered panel roof. 
     
     
         12 . The demountable structure of  claim 10 , further comprising an accessory mount coupled to the roof system. 
     
     
         13 . A demountable structure, comprising:
 a first structural panel comprising a first joining edge, wherein the first joining edge comprises a first joining member;   a second structural panel comprising a second joining edge, wherein the second joining edge comprises a second joining member;   wherein the first joining member removably couples to the second joining member.   
     
     
         14 . The demountable structure of  claim 13 , wherein the first structural panel comprises a first internal structure and the second structural panel comprises a second internal structure, wherein the first internal structure and the second internal structure each comprise an inner panel, an outer panel, and an internal pocket therebetween. 
     
     
         15 . The demountable structure of  claim 14 , wherein the internal pocket comprises at least one of a wire chase, a ballast, an insulation material, or a sound dampening material. 
     
     
         16 . The demountable structure of  claim 13 , wherein the first structural panel comprises a first panel face and a structural panel mounting bracket coupled to the first panel face. 
     
     
         17 . The demountable structure of  claim 16 , further comprising a demountable finish panel comprising a finish panel mounting bracket coupled to a finish panel face, wherein the finish panel mounting bracket is removably coupled to the structural panel mounting bracket. 
     
     
         18 . The demountable structure of  claim 13 , further comprising a roof system. 
     
     
         19 . A demountable structure, comprising:
