Definitions

  • the blocks 42 also have central apertures 52 defined by tubular walls 54, both substantially identical to the aperture 24 and walls 26 of the block 12, and both having their axes parallel to the longitudinal axes of the grooves 50.
  • the blocks 42 can therefore be connected to each other and to the blocks 12 by means of the connecting elements 30, again in a great variety of orientations.
  • a third form of auxiliary connecting element is indicated 78 in Figures 25 to 27, and comprises a half element 72 having one end of its flat side 74 integrally joined to and projecting perpendicularly from one end of a connecting element 30, forming an L-shape (or an inverted L-shape, as viewed in Figures 26 and 27).
