ABSTRACT:
A structural system and method which utilizes a plurality of three dimensional nodal connectors and one or more struts extending between and secured to the nodal connectors. Each connector is comprised of at least three relatively flat planar plates and preferably, three pairs of relatively flat planar plates which are assembled in three mutually perpendicular planes in space. Each of these plates in each of the three pairs are substantially similar in both size and shape and are uniquely designed so that they are capable of being interfitted in the mutually perpendicular planes. Also each of the struts are substantially similar in both size and shape and may be connected to the nodal connectors at connection regions which are slightly resilient so that the struts are capable of being snap fitted between such plates of each connector and releaseably retained therein.
