ABSTRACT:
A construction for a space frame system of the type wherein an upper chord frame and a lower chord frame structure are formed of a plurality of strut members connected to each other and held together by a plurality of connecting fixtures and web struts. The cord struts are of an improved form which adds to the structural strength of the space frame assembly. The struts are bent or otherwise formed into elongated channels which include a pair of outwardly and sidewardly projecting lip portions which are oriented in a plane substantially parallel to the channel bottom portion. The lip portions provide attachment surface portions which allow a great variety of mounting and support connections.
