Concrete frame

Concrete frame

A concrete frame, also known as a concrete skeleton, is a structure composed of interconnected beams, columns, and slabs that is used to support larger structures. Due to the low cost of producing them, concrete frames are often used when building dams, bridges, and buildings. Reinforced concrete frame structures are commonly used when making concrete frames, as steel rebar's stronger tensile strength makes up for concretes tensile weakness.
