-1- JUNCTION PLATE Abstract A junction plate is disclosed which is formed by stamping from a metal disk and which is adapted to secure together a plurality of main struts to form a polygonal geodesic structure, such as an icosahedron. The junction plate includes a series of main strut chan- nels which are bent relative to a flat central portion of the plate so that they are parallel to the main struts of the structure to receive and hold the main struts in the main strut channels. There are also formed in the plate a series of auxiliary strut channels intended to receive ends of auxiliary struts which may be inserted into the structure to support the surface faces of the structure to allow easier covering of the structure using conventional building materials. The auxiliary strut channels are particularly shaped and adapted to allow easy and quick installation of auxi- liary struts into the structure with a minimum of shap- ing necessary to the auxiliary strut.
