Abstract

A method wherein a first unit () is provided having a field of grip elements (), and a second unit () provided with retention elements () suitable for co-operating with the grip elements () of the first unit () in order to provide a self-gripping fastening. The first and second units are put into contact in such a manner that the grip elements () of the first unit and the retention elements () of the second unit provide a self-gripping fastening (F). A treatment zone of the self-gripping fastening is treated in order to deform the grip elements () of the first unit () and/or the retention elements () of the second unit (), whereby the first and second units () are permanently secured to each other, thereby forming an assembled structure.
