A rigid frame structural system is the load-resisting skeleton constructed with straight or curved members interconnected by mostly rigid connections, which resist movements induced at the joints of members. Its members can take a bending moment, shear, and axial loads. The two common assumptions as to the behavior of a building frame are that its beams are free to rotate at their connections or that its members are so connected that the angles they make with each other do not change under load. Frameworks with connections of intermediate stiffness will be intermediate between these two extremes. Frameworks with connections of intermediate stiffness are commonly called semi-rigid frames. In this type of structural system beams and columns are constructed monolithically to withstand moments imposed due to loads and withstands bending moment, shear force, and axial loads.

In this kind of structure, beams and columns are constructed monolithically to withstand moments that are imposed due to loads. A rigid-frame system is more suitable for reinforced concrete buildings. Although this system may also be used in steel construction, the connections will be costly. However, there is the advantage of the likelihood of planning and fitting of windows due to open rectangular arrangement. Moreover, the members of a rigid-frame system can withstand bending moment, axial loads and shear force. Just a fun fact: The tallest structure in the world, the Burj Khalifa, is constructed using a rigid-frame system.
