Cancellous bone (also called trabecular bone) is an inner spongy structure that resembles honeycomb, which accounts for 20% of bone mass. This spongy mesh–like bone is designed for strength similar to steel rods within a concrete structure.

Structure of bone ... Bone is a beautiful substance with an intricate structure. To simplify quite a bit, the basic unit is the Haversian system, which is a hollow, laminated rod of collagen and calcium phosphate; the hollow core is a nutrient channel, the Haversian canal.

There are two kinds of bone tissue (see Figure 1 ): ... Compact bone is the hard material that makes up the shaft of long bones and the outside surfaces of other bones. Compact bone consists of cylindrical units called osteons (Haversian systems).

We first begin by describing the hierarchical levels of bone structure (anatomy) and then describe how these levels are constructed by bone cells removing and adding matrix (physiology). ... II. Cortical Bone versus Trabecular Bone Structure ... III.1 First Level Cortical Bone Structure...

In this section we discuss how various aspects of both cortical and trabecular bone structure as described in the previous section affect their function represented by the mechanical properties of stiffness and strength.

The bones in the skeleton are not all solid. The outside cortical bone is solid bone with only a few small canals. The insides of the bone contain trabecular bone which is like scaffolding or a honey-comb. The spaces between the bone are filled with fluid bone marrow cells, which make the blood, and some fat cells.

These units of structure, called osteons, all run parallel in compact bone, but form a looser and less-ordered network in spongy bone. Compact bone forms in the perimeter of long bone shafts, ...

Structural Organization of Bone; The structure of bone is very similar to reinforced concrete that is used to make a building or a bridge. When the building or bridge is first assembled, an initial frame that contains long steel rods is put in place.
