A Frame structure is a structure having the combination of beam, column and slab to resist the lateral and gravity loads. These structures are usually used to overcome the large moments developing due to the applied loading.
Types of frame structures
Frames structures can be differentiated into:
1. Rigid frame structure
Which are further subdivided into:
Pin ended
Fixed ended
2. Braced frame structure
Which is further subdivided into:
Gabled frames
Portal frames
Rigid Structural Frame
The word rigid means ability to resist the deformation. Rigid frame structures can be defined as the structures in which beams & columns are made monolithically and act collectively to resist the moments which are generating due to applied load.
