A method and a joint (1) for joining structural elements (5, 10) of a plastic deformable material, e.g. aluminium, is disclosed. One structural element (5) has a male portion (8) for insertion into a female portion (9) of the other structural element (10). One structural element has at least one engaging surface (6) and at least one reaction surface (7), and the other structural element (10) has at least one engaging surface (3) for contact with said engaging surface (6) of the first mentioned structural element and at least one punched or recessed member (4) with a reaction surface (12) for wedging cooperation with reaction surface(s) (7), said elements (5, 10) being locked in a fixed, clamped state. |
