Abstract

The modular table may be used in an office. It has several side frame sections (4) which may be joined together end-to-end by short locking pieces which may fit into slots in the top surface. Side frames of any desired length may thus be built up. The side frames may be joined at intervals by cross-frames (5) which help to support rectangular table-top sections (17), legs (6) may be attached to the frame sections at intervals to support the table.
