NODE ELEMENTS, KITS, AND METHODS
Examples of first node elements (1), second node elements (20), and kits are disclosed. Also, methods for assembling a lattice structure are disclosed. The first node element (1) comprises a coupling side (3), wherein the coupling side further comprises one or more hollow insertion channels (4a, 4b), wherein each channel is configured to receive one of the elongated bars, and wherein each channel has a longitudinal axis, and the longitudinal axis of each channel is tilted at an angle with respect to a plane defined by the coupling side. Moreover, the first node element comprises a contact side (2), wherein the contact side comprises an opening (6), wherein the opening is communicated with each of the hollow insertion channels forming a corresponding through-hole such that to form the lattice structure the elongated bars are inserted into the hollow channels from the contact side to the coupling side thereby traversing the corresponding through-hole.
