A connector for attaching a beam of a modular structure to either a post or another beam whereby the number of different types of parts in inventory may be reduced. Tabs on an edge of the connecter engage longitudinal grooves formed in a beam surface and are laterally located. The tabs alternatively engage slots sized to a tab width in a wall of a post for precise attachment thereto. A pin is spring biased to protrude from the edge outwardly to engage an aperture in the beam or post to prevent upward movement of and thereby lock the connector thereto whereby the connector may be attached quickly and easily and without inadvertently causing already attached connectors to be disengaged from other walls of a post. A decorative kingpost flange cover is provided which has a hollow interior and an opening thereto for receiving the flange which is held in position by a pair of internal tabs which are flexibly biased to engage grooves in the flange walls whereby two such covers may engage each other along engagement lines less noticeably near the kingpost center for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance and whereby a slot in the cover may be provided to securely attach a wall member directly to the kingpost.
