box frame
Rectangular support structure
A box frame is a structural framework that forms a rigid rectangular enclosure, with load-bearing elements on all sides rather than just at corners or along a central spine.
In construction, it typically refers to a building system where walls and floors together create a series of box-like units that resist forces from multiple directions.
The term also applies to bed frames with solid sides that conceal the mattress support: The box frame gave the bed a sleeker look than a traditional metal frame.
