摘要： A modular component (1) comprising an elongate hollow body (4) having first and second attaching means (2,3) for attaching the modular component (1) to another modular component (1). The first attaching means (2) is in the form of a cylindrical shaped spigot (6) extending along an external surface of a first side wall of the body (4). The second attaching means (3) is in the form of socket (8) extending along an external surface of a second side wall of the body (4) directly opposite the spigot (6). The socket has an internal shape that is sized and of a complementary shape of the spigot (6) for receiving a spigot (6) of another modular component (1). The socket (8) is connected to the spigot (6) by one or more bracing members (14) that extend in a direction from the first side towards the second side between the spigot (6) and the socket (8).
