Structural systems are the construction elements that are designed to be part of a
building’s structure for the purpose of supporting the entire building or just as a part of it.
The structural system transfers loads to the interconnected member to help resist loads.
According to NSCP 2015, structural systems are classified into different members as
follows.
that has no vertical load carrying space frame. Bearing walls or bearing systems
provides a support for or most of the gravity loads that are present in a structure.
The resistance to shear loads re provided by shear walls or the braced frames.
Bearing load system also called as load bearing wall carries the load of
floors and the roof above in addition to its own weight. The bearing load
buildings.
Building Frame System is a structural system with an essentially complete space
frame providing support for gravity loads. Resistance to lateral load is provided by
support vertical loads, but use either shear walls or braced frame to resist
lateral forces.

Moment resisting frames have more deformation capacity and less stiffness

Special moment frames are usually used in regions with high seismic
Dual System with Intermediate Moment Frames is a type of system that has
which the lateral forces are resisted entirely by columns that act as
