A structure for an aircraft fuselage, the structure comprising a skin having an outer face and an inner face machined as a grid-stiffened panel, a plurality of frames, each frame shaped as the cross section of the fuselage and the frames being arranged one after the other along a longitudinal direction of the fuselage. The outer perimeter of each frame is secured to the inner face, a plurality of stringers extend parallel to the longitudinal direction, each stringer extending across multiple frames, passing through these at an opening provided to that end in each frame, and each stringer is pressed against the inner face and secured thereto. In the upper part and in the lower part of the fuselage, a torsion box is provided extending parallel to the longitudinal direction, each torsion box comprising a horizontal plate and tabs which secure the plate to the inner face.
