Bearer structure for assembling modular elements

A bearer structure for assemblying modular elements, comprising:

• uprights constituted by cylindrical sectional elements having T grooves parallel to the axes of the sectional elements and regularly distributed at the periphery, said T-grooves being symmetrical about a plane containing the axes of the sectional elements, and said uprights having a central hollow;
• and members connecting said uprights, said connecting members comprising a part engageable and lockable in said grooves at the desired height, a projecting part, and a cross-piece fixed at its end to said projecting part, said cross-piece supporting various constituent modular elements for office units of various configurations;
• wherein the wall separating the grooves from the central hollow of the sectional elements is pierced by positioning and fixing holes in which are engaged the ends of bolts passing through the connecting members;
• and
• wherein the ends of said uprights are adapted to receive cylindrical end fittings and screw jacks, said cylindrical end fittings and screw jacks having clamped therebetween, at an upper part of said uprights, lugs connected to a partition.
