EXPANDABLE CONNECTOR AND METHOD OF USING SAME TO FORM CURVED STRUCTURAL FRAMEWORK Abstract A structural framework (20) is constructed from primary members (22) that are interconnected in adjacent side-by-side relationship by an expand-able, unitary fastener member (26) receivable within the aligned slots (28) formed in the primary members (22). The fastener members (26) are enlargeable to occupy the entire volume of the primary member slots (28) to securely lock the primary members together. The primary members (22) may be secured together to form a frame structure (20) in a desired shape since the swaging effect imposed on the fastener members when they are enlarged causes the fastener members to retain the shape of the primary members (22).
