wood joints
mortise and tenon joints
are stronger than halving joints, thanks to the increased gluing area.
They can be reinforced by dowelling or, in the case of a through mortise, it can be wedged.
Mortise and tenon joints are made by removing the material thickness in thirds from both pieces at the point where they intersect.
