A structural truss or frame has a plurality of longitudinal support members (101) held together by a plurality of nodal members (501). Each of the support members (101) is constructed from a fibrous composite material (such as a carbon fibre/epoxy composite) defining a hollow tube. A connection between a fibrous tube (101) and a nodal member (501) is configured so as to provide a substantially uniform distribution of load in an axial direction along the longitudinal members (101).
