ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a modular jail structure comprising a plurality of removable cells in adjacent relation arranged in a configuration to form an open area, a plurality of support columns removably coupled to the plurality of cells, and a roof supported by the plurality of support columns, covering at least the open area, such that the roof remains in place, supported by the support columns, when the plurality of cells are removed. It is also directed to a method of preparing and dismantling a jail facility comprising the steps of pre-fabricating a plurality of jail cells at a first site, preparing a foundation comprising at least one slab at a second site, transporting the plurality of jail cells to the second site, arranging the plurality of jail cells in at least one level in a configuration on at least one slab to create a central open area, coupling a plurality of support columns to the cells, erecting a roof supported substantially only by the support columns, and removing the arranged cells, when use of the jail facility is complete, leaving intact the roof supported by the support columns.
