| Abstract |
A construction method and apparatus used to form a surround (8), container or other structure. Posts (10,12,14,16) have slots (50a, 50d) into which walls, which may be planks (20a-d, 22a-d and 24a-d) or made up of planks, are inserted and retained. Numerous posts (10,12,14,16) may be used with numerous walls there between to form many and varied structures. The finished structure is modular, because the posts (10,12,14,16) and walls are not damaged when the walls mount in the slots (50a, 50d). Therefore, if more or fewer posts (10,12,14,16) and/or walls are desired later, one need merely disassemble the structure and add the components desired to the existing structure. The walls may have fittings (60a, 60d) that attach to the inserted ends that cooperate with structures in the slots (50a, 50d) formed in the posts (10, 12, 14, 16) so the walls are held from being removed from the slots (50a, 50d) except along the length of the slots (50a, 50d). |
