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.
