2. Steel frame - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_frame

   Steel frame structure Rectangular steel frame, or "perimeter frame" of the Willis building (at right) contrasted against the diagrid frame at 30 St Mary Axe (at center), in London. Steel frame is a building technique with a " skeleton frame" of vertical steel columns and horizontal I-beams , constructed in a rectangular grid to support the ...

3. Steel design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_design

   The design and use of steel frames are commonly employed in the design of steel structures. More advanced structures include steel plates and shells . In structural engineering, a structure is a body or combination of pieces of the rigid bodies in space that form a fitness system for supporting loads and resisting moments .

4. Rigid frame - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_frame

   In structural engineering, a rigid frame is the load-resisting skeleton constructed with straight or curved members interconnected by predominantly rigid connections, which resist movements induced at the joints of members.

5. Framing (construction) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framing_(construction)

   Wall framing in house construction includes the vertical and horizontal members of exterior walls and interior partitions, both of bearing walls and non-bearing walls. . These stick members, referred to as studs, wall plates and lintels (sometimes called headers), serve as a nailing base for all covering material and support the upper floor platforms, which provide the lateral strength along a

6. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

   The deflection must be considered for the purpose of the structure. When designing a steel frame to hold a glazed panel, one allows only minimal deflection to prevent fracture of the glass. The deflected shape of a beam can be represented by the moment diagram, integrated (twice, rotated and translated to enforce support conditions).

7. Tube (structure) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_(structure)

   By 1963, a new structural system of framed tubes had appeared in skyscraper design and construction. Fazlur Rahman Khan, a structural engineer from Bangladesh (then called East Pakistan) who worked at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, defined the framed tube structure as "a three dimensional space structure composed of three, four, or possibly more frames, braced frames, or shear walls, joined at or ...
