NODAL JOINT OF SPATIAL STRUCTURE THIN-WALLED RODS Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC E04B1/58 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to the sphere of construction, in particular, to a nodal joint of thin-walled rods of a spatial structure. The nodal joint of thin-walled rods of the spatial structure comprises a connecting element in the form of a cylinder. Cylinder dimensions provide for jointing of the necessary number of rods. Attached rods of "П"-shaped section are cut in places of crossing between walls and a shelf of a rod. Walls are bent outside along a radius corresponding to a radius of curvature of a connecting element. The shelf is bent down until full adjacency to the inner face of the connecting element.

EFFECT: simplified manufacturing, assembly and reduction of node weight.
