Initial Joint Re-designs
Initial Joint Re-designs
Design 1
Design 1
Identical Pieces with grooves that were supposed to snap together but did not work because of force needed to maintain the connection.
Design 2
Design 2
Updated to have a stronger snapping connection. Joint was strong in only one direction
Design 3
Design 3
Updated the joint to snap together in two directions making it stronger in all directions

Joint
Joint
Updated joint to except a dowel in the center. As you move each piece into each other, it causes prongs to bend and then lock into place because of a groove at the end preventing the piece from coming out easy.
Module
Module
Two identical pieces snap together with a third member acting not only as a lock, but to allow the joint to continue in another axis.
Module Aggregation
Module Aggregation
The identical pieces snap together similar to a buckle. One piece repeated allows aggregation in the x and y axis.

Single Module
Single Module
A dowel locks and allows moment in the z axis.
2 Axis Aggregation
2 Axis Aggregation
Aggregating the module without the dowel.
3 Axis Aggregation
3 Axis Aggregation
Aggregating the module with the dowel.

Step 1
Step 1
Two identical pieces Snap together.
Step 2
Step 2
Two additional identical pieces snap together and act as a dowel.
Step 3
Step 3
The grooves in the joints are tight enough so the pieces snap together but can still be taken apart.

Straight Module
Straight Module
The connection is located at each identical end.
2 Axis Aggregation
2 Axis Aggregation
A straight piece allows this joint to aggregate on a 2-D Plane similar to a waffle grid.
Curved Module
Curved Module
The connections are still identical but now the piece is curved.
3 Axis Aggregation
3 Axis Aggregation
A curved piece allows aggregation in the Z direction to create an arch.
