A connector assembly for use in a modular structure is intended for temporary usage, and may be assembled and disassembled conveniently. The connector assembly includes a slidable bolt partly mounted within a first panel and slidable from a first position completely within that first panel to a second position partially within an adjacent second panel. Furthermore, the first panel has one male channel and one female channel, adapted to mate with the male channel on an adjacent panel. The male channel may slide into the female channel laterally i.e., without the need for lifting, or rotating either panel into place. At each corner, the structure includes a corner post which emulates the channel into which the sliding bolt moves and permits the securing of panels thereto. In addition, the structure may be mountable to an existing permanent structure by providing special brackets, which emulate the mating structure of adjacent panels.
