Abstract
The invention provides a support structure comprising a combination of a first plate-shaped support element having a first circumference and a second plate-shaped support element having a second circumference, wherein circumferential parts of the first circumference and the second circumference, respectively, have corresponding shapes such that a shape fitting connection between the respective circumferential parts in aligned condition of the support elements is possible. The combination comprises at least one passage near the connection in the connected condition of the circumferential parts, as well as at least one connecting element which extends at least partially within the at least one passage so as to limit movement of the support elements relative to each other in the thickness direction. The at least one passage is formed by parts of the connecting circumferential parts of the first circumference and the second circumference.
