A multilateral modular structure having fastening devices for connection to similar structures, the fastening devices including the module member having surfaces terminating in edges, a tab extending outwardly from an edge of and being offset from said member, the tab being connected to the member by a hinge integral with the member and the tab, the tab having one surface extending outwardly from said edge alignable with one surface of the member, the tab having an opposite surface to its said one surface unaligned with a surface of the member, and a connecting pin adjacent said edge from which the tab extends, the pin extending and supported from said one surface of the member, said opposite surface of said tab being transversely alignable with said pin, said tab having an opening therethrough, said opening having an axis generally parallel to the axis of the pin.

A fastening device for releasably connecting one member to another, the combination including: a. a member having surfaces terminating in a member edge, b. a tab extending outwardly from but not overlapping said member edge, said tab having a tab edge positioned adjacent to said member edge, said tab being offset from the plane of said member and having an opening therethrough, c. hinge means positioned where said member edge and said tab edge are adjacent to each other for hinging together said member and said tab, said hinge means permitting said tab to swing from planar alignment of said tab with said member, into various angular positions, d. a pin extending and supported from the surface of said member, said pin being positioned inwardly from said member edge so that said pin is offset along said member edge from which said tab extends, and e. said pin and said tab being adapted to be connected to respective tab and pin means similarly arranged on another member in order to secure said members together.
