A kit of modules of a framework, each module comprises struts connected among each other, each strut comprising a first and a second side, the modules being connected by a set of fixing elements and comprise each at least two gussets placed on two adjacent struts, each strut being provided with at least a first and a second perforation, said gussets being provided with a third perforation and extend in parallel to the second side of the struts, the third perforation being oriented along a direction which crosses the second side, a first respectively a second fixing element of said set being housed in the first respectively the second perforations of two modules when they are assembled side by side with their first sides of the struts of each of the two modules, which fixing elements are provided for enabling to establish a connection between the two adjacent modules while they are connected to each other.

A kit of modules (1) of a framework, each module comprising at least three struts (2,3,4,5) connected among each other in such a manner as to form a sub-kit of the framework, each strut comprising a first (2a,3a) and a second (2b,3b) side forming an angle among each other, said kit comprising a set of fixing elements provided for connecting the modules among each other, each module also comprising at least two gussets (6) each placed on two adjacent struts at a height of a junction between those two adjacent struts, each strut being provided with at least a first (7) and a second (8) perforation situated on the first side and applied respectively in the neighborhood of a first (11) and a second (12) end of the strut, said gussets being each time provided with a third perforation (13), characterized in that the gussets extend essentially in parallel with the second side of the struts, the third perforation being oriented according to a direction which extend across the second side, a first of the fixing elements of said set being housed in the first perforations and a second of the fixing elements of said set being housed in the second perforations of two adjacent modules when they are assembled side by side with the first sides of one of the struts of each of the two modules, which fixing elements being provided for enabling to establish the connection between two adjacent modules when said connection is established among them.
