Best Answer

Most commercial hive bodies (boxes) are made to accomodate 10 frames of combs. These frames are easily removable. We use 9 frames most of the time to allow a little easier access for removing the frames of combs. Each frame is one comb. A frame of combs is simply a wooden frame with ears on the top portion that allow it to hang in the hive body like a file folder. The inside portion of the frame contains foundation or combs that the bees use for brood rearing or storage of honey.

How do bees not get crushed when in the beehive?

If honey bees are living in the wild in a colony, they leave enough space between the combs that they build to allow free passage through the combs. If they live in a hive supplied by a beekeeper, enough 'bee space' is allowed in the manufacture of frames to allow the bees to move freely within the hive.
