  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. 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.

  4. Framing (construction) - Wikipedia

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

    Light-frame buildings in areas with shallow or nonexistent frost depths are often erected on monolithic concrete-slab foundations that serve both as a floor and as a support for the structure. Other light-frame buildings are built over a crawlspace or a basement, with wood or steel joists used to span between foundation walls, usually ...

  5. Space frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_frame

    The roof of this industrial building is supported by a space frame structure. If a force is applied to the blue node and the red bar were not present, the resultant effect on the structure would depend entirely on the blue node's bending rigidity, i.e. to its resistance (or lack thereof) to bending; however, with the red bar in place, then assuming negligible bending rigidity of the blue node ...

  6. 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 .

  7. List of tallest freestanding steel structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest...

    Tallest tower in the world. Inclusion on the list is somewhat arguable as it is not entirely a steel structure. While the external steel lattice does provide most of the structural support, the tower also has a concrete core. The two are structurally separated from each other and the concrete core and steel frame compensate each other and ...
