Summary
Lateral Force Distribution
refers to the way
Horizontal forces
, such as wind or
Seismic Loads
, are allocated and transmitted through a structure to ensure stability and prevent failure. Proper distribution is critical in
Structural Engineering
to maintain equilibrium and prevent excessive
Stress concentrations
that could lead to
Structural Damage
or collapse.
