Abstract

A constructional element has an L-shaped body of molded metal or synthetic plastics material. The two arms of the body are provided with inclined stepped surfaces so that two adjacent elements can be locked together in one of a number of different relative positions. In this way a plurality of the elements can be used to build-up a staircase or variable height and extent.
