Abstract: The present invention relates to a pallet including a plurality of supporting members (10), a plurality of upper plate members (20) placed parallel with one another on and across the supporting members, and a pair of prop members (30) placed at both ends of a bottom surface of each of the support members (10), wherein each of the prop members (30) is constructed such that the outer wall thereof has the same height as both sidewalls accommodated in grooves of the supporting members (10) and the inner wall thereof has a groove into which the body of the supporting member (10) is to be inserted, thereby, preventing possible accidents of injuries and damages by keeping dangerous sharp cut edges of the respective members from being exposed.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing furniture or sculpture by cutting plies from a sheet material, laminating the plies into a beam element, and removing excess portions of the plies. Bars of similar diameters and lengths are cut. The beam elements are interconnected with other beam elements. The bars are inserted into some of the slots, grooves, cut-outs and tabulated apertures in beam elements. By orienting some of the beam elements or some of the bars to be in collinear alignment to a load acting upon the furniture, and by orienting some of the beam elements such that some of the individual plies are disposed with an edge facing forward, a structural object can be created.
