The foundation holds a frame structure up. As for the building, it is a group effort. Load bearing walls hold the roof up, but tend to fall over if the roof isn't there to tie the walls together.

What is load bearing and frame structure?

Dear Friend, 1) Load Bearing Structure means All of the Loads of Building Pass Through Walls to "Ground". So we can't build this type of building without wall. And If we have to build taller building (skyscrapers) then we can't build skyscrapers using load bearing Technic because wall can't able to bear all the huge load of multi storey building.! (means 2 storey it will be okay. but 4 to higher storey then definitely 'NOT'. 2.) Frame Structure means All of the Loads of Building Pass Through (Slab to Beam & Column, Column to Footing) and Footing to "Ground" So we can build this type of structure without walls, means we can use just partition instead of heavy wall for separation. Modern Skyscrapers Possible because of this Technic.
