corner joint
A corner joint is a type of connection used in woodworking and construction to join two pieces of material at a right angle. This joint is commonly found in furniture, frames, and structures where two surfaces meet to form a corner. Corner joints can be created using various methods, including butt joints, miter joints, and dovetail joints, each offering different levels of strength and aesthetic appeal.
In addition to woodworking, corner joints are also relevant in metalworking and masonry. They provide stability and support in structures like walls and beams. Properly constructed corner joints enhance the durability and longevity of the overall assembly, making them essential in both furniture design and building construction.
