The Hennebique system makes reinforced concrete a frame
node
Francois Hennebique patents and then licenses internationally a complete reinforced concrete framing system - columns, beams and slabs cast monolithically, with bars bent up to follow the tension line through a beam. Concrete stops being a material for tanks and foundations and becomes a way of building whole buildings, and licensing rather than authorship is how it spreads.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
