Abstract:
1. A modular system for constructing a structure through frictional mating between modular pieces, the system comprises: a base defined by a pair of channel sides and a pair of tongue sides, each channel side having two base protrusions that extend along the length of the base, wherein a base frictional channel forms between the two base protrusions, the two base protrusions having a plurality of base apertures that form a transverse axis across the two base apertures, each tongue side defined by a tongue that extends along the length of the base; a wall panel defined by a plurality of wall panel edges arranged to mate with the frictional channel in a frictional snap-lock engagement, at least one of the wall panel edges defined by at least one wall projection that extends laterally, and at least one wall recession that recesses laterally, wherein the at least one wall projection is arranged to mate with the at least one wall recession of an adjacent wall panel in a frictional snap-lock engagement; a floor panel defined by a plurality of floor panel edges arranged to engage a junction between the tongue and each protrusion, at least one of the floor panel edges defined by at least one floor projection that extends laterally, and at least one floor recession that recesses laterally, wherein the at least one floor projection is arranged to mate with the at least one floor recession of an adjacent floor panel in a frictional snap-lock engagement; a divider defined by a divider first side having a first frictional channel and a divider second side having a second frictional channel, the divider first side and the divider second side arranged to support the plurality of floor panels, the first frictional channel and the second frictional channel arranged to mate with the plurality of wall panel edges in a frictional snap-lock engagement, wherein the wall panel and the floor panel meet in a substantially perpendicular orientation at the divider; a roof truss defined by a generally arc shape, the roof truss further defined by a pair of lateral ends, each lateral end having a roof frictional channel, the roof truss further having a plurality of roof apertures extending along the edges of the pair of lateral ends; a roof panel arranged to mate with the roof frictional channel in a frictional snap-lock engagement; and a roof base defined by a generally rectangular block that provides structural integrity and an adjacent roof base frictional channel that mates with the roof panel in a frictional snap-lock engagement.
