Modular building structure adapted for thermal regulation therein

Modular building structure (10) comprising:

• a framework comprising a plurality of rods and hub connectors to interconnect the plurality of rods together, the framework comprising empty spaces bordered by corresponding rods of said plurality of rods,
• a plurality of panels, wherein one panel is mounted inside each empty space and is connected to said framework in order to create an interior,
• an air chamber layer inside which air may circulate, said air chamber layer forming at least a portion of an outer surface of the interior,
• at least one upper valve system mounted in an upper portion of the structure, and at least one lower valve system mounted in a lower portion of the structure,
• wherein said at least one upper and lower valve systems are selectively actuable to perform each of the following functions a) to f):
• a) draw the air outside the modular building structure through the at least one lower valve system into the air chamber layer and to expel the ascending air from the air chamber layer to outside the modular building structure through the at least one upper valve system,
• b) draw the air inside the interior through the at least one lower valve system (46b)-into the air chamber layer and to expel the ascending air from the air chamber layer into the interior through the at least one upper valve system,
• c) seal the air chamber layer (44)-and the interior from the outside such that the air chamber layer acts as an insulator layer,
• d) draw the air inside the interior into the air chamber layer through the at least one lower valve system and to expel the ascending air from the air chamber layer to outside the modular building structure through the at least one upper valve system while the interior is in fluid communication with the air outside the modular building structure through the at least one lower valve system,
• e) draw the air outside the modular building structure through the at least one lower valve system into the air chamber layer and to expel the ascending air from the air chamber (44)-into the interior through the at least one upper valve system while the interior is in fluid communication with the air outside the modular building structure through the at least one lower valve system, and
• f) create a first and a second air communication between the air outside the modular building structure and an upper and a lower part of the interior through respectively the at least one upper valve system and the at least one lower valve system.
