Sway in structures refers to the lateral movement or displacement of a building or bridge caused by external forces such as wind, seismic activity, or uneven loading. This movement can affect the structural integrity and stability of the structure, leading to potential damage or failure if not properly accounted for in the design. Engineers use various methods, such as bracing or damping systems, to control and minimize sway during the design and construction phases.
Sway frames are those that have lateral stability due to rigidity in their structure, while non-sway frames lack this lateral stability and have to rely on bracing or other systems to provide resistance to lateral forces. Sway frames are typically more resistant to racking movements and are often preferred in structures where lateral loads need to be resisted efficiently.

It doesn't mean anything if you don't sway your arms while walking; it is personal choice. If you feel awkward or weird in public, you can try swaying your arms, but likely no one notices.
