A core support system is described by which the core structure and frame structure of a dynamoelectric machine can be manufactured independently in parallel operations and later assembled. The support system provides radially resilient support of the core structure while maintaining tangential stiffness by utilizing axially extending spring bars disposed in a cylindrical configuration about the inner periphery of the stator frame structure. The spring bars are rigidly attached to annular frame rings and can be radially deformed to be in firm contact with building bars of the core structure which can be axially slid into the frame during assembly.
