ABSTRACT:
A furniture base construction comprising a top plate mounted on a hollow, vertical standard, which is connected to a hollow, horizontal base. The connection between the vertical standard and the horizontal base forms a male-female joint with interlocking edges. The interlocking edges of the joint resist both rotational and lateral forces. The joint between the vertical standard and horizontal base, is maintained in compression by two tension members connecting an upper mounting plate secured within the vertical standard and a lower mounting plate secured within the horizontal base. Holes in the underside of the horizontal base, aligned with openings in the lower mounting plate, provide access to the tension members.
