The kanji 架 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字 けいせいいもじ). The left side is 木 (ki, tree or wood) which serves as the semantic component, indicating that the kanji has to do with something made of wood or related to construction. The right side is 加 (ka, to add), which is the phonetic component, providing the sound. It originally represented a structure made of wood, such as a bridge or a shelf. Over time, the meaning expanded to include a wider range of constructions and supports.
