What do you think is a Framed Structure?

FRAME Is a structural system that supports other components of a physical construction. Is a structural system that supports other components of a physical construction.

FRAMED STRUCTURE Is the structure that is made stable by a skeleton that is able to stand by itself as a rigid structure without depending on floors or walls to resist deformation.

SYSTEMS OF CONSTRUCTION Heavy-Timber Frame Balloon Frame Steel Frame

HEAVY-TIMBER FRAME Large posts spaced relatively far apart, support thick floors and roof beams. Large posts spaced relatively far apart, support thick floors and roof beams. Is the commonest type of construction in eastern Asia and northern Europe, from prehistoric times to the mid-19 th century.

BALLOON FRAME Is composed of many small and closely spaced members that could be handled easily and assembled quickly by nailing instead of by the slow joinery and dowelling of the past. This type of construction supplanted the heavy- timber frame.

STEEL FRAMING Is based on the same principal but is much simplified by the far greater strength of the material, and which provides more rigidity with fewer members. The load- bearing capacity of steel is adequate for buildings many times higher than those made of other materials. Is based on the same principal but is much simplified by the far greater strength of the material, and which provides more rigidity with fewer members. The load- bearing capacity of steel is adequate for buildings many times higher than those made of other materials. Because the column and beam are fused by riveting or welding, stresses are distributed between them, and both can be longer and lighter than in structure in which they work independently as post-and-lintel. The steel frame is used also in single-story buildings where large spans are required.
