Abstract

A ventilable portable structure arrangement is transformablebetween a collapsed state and an erected state. The assembly comprises a first portion (102) of foldable material arranged to define, when in the erected state, an interior chamber (106). A second portion (104) of foldable material is also provided and arranged to define, when in the erected state, a thermal chimney having an inlet (116) at one end thereof and an outlet (118) at another end thereof.The first and second portions (102, 104) are arranged so as to permit, when in the erected state, flow of air through the interior chamber (106) into the thermal chimney via the inlet (116) in response to heating of air substantially passing through the thermal chimney, the air entering the thermal chimney being expelled from the thermal chimney via the outlet (118).
