Workstation and method of constructing the same

A heavy duty, large capacity workstation comprising:

• a first module element comprising a base portion, a back panel and a side panel portion, said base portion having at least one groove and said side panel portion being of double-wall construction;
• a second module element having a first groove corresponding to said groove of said first module element, comprising a base portion, a back panel, and a side panel portion, said base portion having at least one groove corresponding to said at least one groove of said first module element, said side panel portion being of double-wall construction, and wherein said first and second module elements are connected;
• a first rail inserted into said at least one groove of said first and second module elements;
• a top panel secured to said back panels and side panel portions of said first and second module elements;
• a first upright attached to a base formed by said base portions of said connected first and second module elements;
• at least one drawer slidably attached to said first upright;
• a first corner reinforcement vertically extending from said base to said top panel in a space formed by said double walls of said side panel portion of said first module element;
• and
• a second corner reinforcement vertically extending from said base to said top panel in a space formed by said double walls of said side panel portion of said second module element;
• wherein the width of said base is in excess of 60 inches.

A heavy duty, large capacity modular workstation comprising:

• a first module element having a first base portion, said base portion having at least one groove;
• a second module element having a second base portion, said second base portion having at least one groove corresponding to said at least one groove of said first module element, said first module element and said second module element connected together along corresponding ends and forming a base;
• a first rail inserted into said at least one groove of said first and second module elements;
• a back panel attached to said base and generally perpendicular thereto;
• a first side panel portion attached to one end of said base and generally perpendicular thereto, said first side panel portion of double-wall construction;
• a second side panel portion attached to an opposite end of said base and generally perpendicular thereto, said second side panel portion of double-wall construction;
• at least one array of slots in predetermined positions along said base;
• at least one upright secured in said at least one array of slots;
• and
• at least one drawer slidably attached to said at least one upright;
• wherein the width of said base is in excess of 60 inches.
