ABSTRACT:
Each construction member comprises a pair of mutually opposing, normally strip-like bodies of wood or other fastener impalable material, which are abutted face-to-face with one another on a common axis and adapted to define an axially extending slot at the interface therebetween. It also comprises an elongated strip of metal-like reinforcing material which is interposed in the slot and equipped with integral tooth-like fasteners on the longitudinally extending edges thereof which are oppositely disposed to one another from edge-to-edge of the strip and impaled in the bodies of fastener impalable material adjacent opposite sides of the slot. To this extent, pairs of the members may be modular. However, where a pair of members are to be interengaged with one another in a mortise and tenon joint, then the bodies of fastener impalable material in one of the members are coterminated with one another at corresponding axial ends thereof, and the metal-like strip therebetween is projected beyond the terminal ends of the bodies to form a tenon on that end of the member. Moreover, the bodies of fastener impalable material in the other member are adapted so that they define a cross-axial groove at the interface therebetween, which is disposed on the opposite side of the interface from the axially extending slot in the respective member, and opens into one axially extending edge of the member to form a mortise for the tenon of the first mentioned member.
