A building technique uses standard shipping containers as buttresses to support a truss system that may extend between the shipping containers to provide a roof. A sliding connector system attaches the trusses to the shipping containers to accommodate variations in separation of the shipping containers presenting a versatile framing system that is insensitive to site-related variations.

A rotary joint includes a socket rod having a socket rod flange with a basically spheroid con-cave bearing surface at a first end, a housing nut encircling the socket rod and having a threaded wrenching head, a ball rod having a basically spheroid convex bearing surface and threaded side walls around the convex bearing surface, and a joint actuator configured to actuate relative movement of the socket rod flange and the ball rod. A diameter of the threaded side walls of the ball rod corresponds to a diameter of the threaded wrenching head of the housing nut.

A connector includes at least two cavities or receptacles extending from a base to receive adjacent tubes of a wall or panel. The receptacles are closed at one end. At least two walls extend from the base in the same direction as the receptacles. The walls are positioned on the base and outside the receptacles such that the panels are secured to a specific angular orientation with respect to each other. A top connector and a bottom connector are used to secure rods or tubes of adjacent panels. A series of top and bottom connectors can be used to secure multiple panels to form an enclosure, such as a kennel or gazebo.

The invention is about a supporting framework, having nodes and at least one framework component. The framework components are either panels or diagonal braces or a combination of them. At least one node has a connector and at least two bars. At least one connector has a plurality of bar receiving members that are located in a corresponding plurality of faces of an imaginary polyhedron and at least one bar has a first end, fixed to the one of the bar receiving members of the connector of a first node and a second end, fixed to the corresponding bar receiving member of the connector of another node. The node further comprise a holder for the diagonal braces or panels.

It will be clearly seen that the bolt-like piece (1) described in the space frame connection system is embossed on the shaft with the part with thread being excluded, and the groove-set is formed, and as a result of title assembly of these two parts with groove-set formed in the hole section inside the wide nut-like piece (3) within the tolerances and at the same pitch (FIG. 4/2, FIG. 4/3), the system has the strength against the serious values of excessive pressures.

In an architectural system, a triangular base engages an extension. The base includes three complete struts substantially aligned along their respective axes. These axes each intersect each other to form a triangle contained in a base plane. The triangle's vertices each correspond to a respective nucleus of nodes called A, B and C. This forms three base angles. The first angle has a positive value about equal to [j×20.9°+k×31.7°+m×36°+n×37.4°], where j, k, m and n are each an integer less than three. The second angle also has a positive value about equal to [q×20.9°+r×31.7°+s×36°+t×37.4°], where q, r, s and t are each an integer less than three. The third node engages the second and third complete struts and must be large enough to maintain the third base angle at a positive value less than 60°.At least one of the base triangle struts comprises two or more rigid pieces able to move apart so as to produce a strut elongation. The extension comprises a fourth complete strut substantially aligned along a fourth axis forming a substantially acute angle >3° with the base plane.

A modular structure system component includes a body having a substantially spherical core that includes an outer surface. The component further includes a plurality of nodes that each of the plurality of nodes has a first end disposed adjacent to the outer surface and a second end distal to the outer surface and a receiving means provided within each of the plurality of nodes, wherein each of the receiving means is configured to removably cooperate with a corresponding coupler. The body is configured to cooperate with a plurality of structural members that each include one or more of the couplers, and wherein the body and the structural members define a modular structure.
