Social Structure does not refer to a concrete reality like a building frame, for example , it is a frame nevertheless , a pattern of inter-relationships that have been found enduring and long –lasting .Social Structure is a set of rules which are made by human being that are liable to change in the long run. In order to say that a structure exists, it must persist over time. Although change is always possible, small groups and larger organisations do not change easily. Thus structure do not change over time, despite their enduring character. Social Structure reflect some dimensions of interaction such as power, economic resources, prestige, value, etc.
