Abstract: A modular construction system consisting of a plurality of multifunction connectors or multifunction hinges joining together a plurality of polyhedral panel components having edge connector engaging means resulting in a spring tensioned, automatic parabolic, self-aligning, perpendicular snap-in, parallel slide out, planar angle tolerant, rotational angle tolerant, toe-in angle tolerant, toe-out angle tolerant, easy-in/hard-out, dual reverse curl linear barb, multi-planar, centerline pivoting, centerline friction, dual edge sealing, pre-stressed assembly creating groups of connected polyhedron modules forming a virtually unlimited variety of domes, arches, spheres, cylinders, cubes, trusses, walls, roofs, hinges, doors, windows, columns, beams, bridges, frames, vaults, fixtures, enclosures, shelters, partitions, toys, covers, sculptures, containers, stairs or other polyhedral structures, by hand, without the use of tools using only seconds of construction time per module.
