How many square feet will a 3 kwh solar system power?

There is no set answer to your question. The power output depends on where the panels are located and what rating of panels you get. If you use a very low rated panel in poor sun it would be possible to cover a mall parking lot and not produce 3 kwh. On the other hand, if you use a high rated panel in good sun you could fit it on the roof of a house. Some areas of the world (just by their relationship to the equator) have more capacity to produce power due to increased sun intensity. 10ftx10ft of panels in India in good orientation to the sun could be tuned to produce double the power of the same panels in moderately good orientation in Alaska.

How is a solid different from a frame?

In a frame the structure is not continuous throughout the panels of the building, but is in connected lines of structure that form a frame.

For example in timber framed buildings: the timber is a structural frame that does not completely fill in the walls, roof and floor. These are clad over and lined within the framing to form panels. The framing bears the structural loads.

In concrete or brick masonry construction: the walls are formed by the masonry units being put together to form solid walls. This means the loads of the building are distributed throughout the entire wall.
