Abstract
A method and apparatus for assembling an egg-crate type grid (10) by orthogonally interengaging slots (30,32) cut transversely into one longitudinal edge of each of a plurality of metal strips (12,14). A first plurality of strips (14) is supported on their lower unslotted edges in north-south orientation so that the strips are uniformly spaced apart in parallel in the east-west direction with all the slots (32) oriented upwardly on the upper edge. The slotted upper edges (26) of adjacent north-south strips are then spread farther apart in the east west direction while maintaining the lower edges (28) at said uniform spacing. The lower, slotted edges (24) of a second plurality of east-west oriented strips are interengaged with the north-south strips while the selected portions of the upper edges of the north-south strips are spread. The upper edges of the first plurality of strips are then returned to the unspread orientation.
