Abstract
Abstract A fabric juncture assembly comprising an interlock and connectors, where the fabric panels are secured to the latter. Assembly is assured by a male-female latching mode variously presented along adjacent edges of the interlock and the connectors. As a result, a secured relationship is positively achieved between the interlock and the connectors and, at the same time, a watertight relationship.
