ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to an improved frame construction for transmitting in-plane and out-of-plane loads between a plurality of components and maintaining the components in spacial relation. The frame is comprised of a plurality of node members for interconnection with the components and a plurality of beams and skin members interconnecting the node members. The beams include two channels on opposing sides for receiving the outer edges of the skin members. Preferably, the node members and beams form a perimeter channel that extends substantially around the entire perimeter of the frame and the skin members are secured thereto.
