Non-frame load-bearing structures

The load-bearing function is performed by the masonry or reinforced-concrete wall. In this case buildings of five storeys or more can be built with highly load-bearing walls only 17.5 cm thick. In less tall buildings the properties of the load-bearing shell can be varied; then additional aspects such as fire protection are relevant.
