Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9606241A1] A structure comprises two interlocking members (11a, 11b), such as two panels, a first member (11a) having a first rectilinear location edge (34) for lying interlocked with a second rectilinear location edge (27) of a second of the two members, said first location edge (34) comprising a pair of elongate flange formations (33, 33') which define therebetween an elongate recess (36), said second location edge (27) having a tongue formation (28) adapted to be located in said elongate recess (36) by relative movement of the members in a direction substantially perpendicular to the length of said elongate recess (36), and retention means to resist separation of the interlocked location edges (27, 34) in at least a first direction of separation.
