Abstract: A multiple seating arrangement and method of assembling same is provided comprising a base on which is mounted a continuous series of hollow seat modules in over-lapping, generally contiguous relation, each module having a fastening strip at its end. A first module is secured to the base at one end by its fastening strip and at the other end by barbed (or other type) fasteners secured to the base. Succeeding modules are secured at one end over the fastening strip of the previous module in such a way as to cover the securing means passing through the fastening strip into the base. A final module is made up by removing the fastening strip of a module, placing it under the end from which the fastening strip was removed, and using part of it there to secure that end to the base by means of a barbed fastener.
