- Based on 4x4 inch tubing, 1/4" or 1/2" wall depending on strength required
- Scaling can happen by:
- Extension of tube members inlength
- By stacking tube members on top of each other in one direction
- By stacking tube members on top of each other in two directions
- By stacking tube members in a space frame configuration by using connector plates.
- Using thicker wall of tubing
- May be connected to one another by plates
- Stacking of connector plates for increasing strength
- Stacking of pivot joints plates to increase pivot strength
- Pivot joints are used to couple tubing members
