They allow the foot to be placed in proper position to support the persons weight with the least possible lateral forces acting through the system.

Because of lateral forces, the right main gear collapsed.

However, if lateral forces are taken into consideration the value of critical load remains approximately the same.

Trusses are a more direct way of absorbing lateral forces.

Less than a second later a sharp lateral force hit them hard, knocking them to the floor.

A second lateral force, much stronger than the 6rst one, hit them within twenty seconds.

This force can be considered negligible to other lateral forces.

The stem incorporates a clutch to protect it from lateral forces.

Problems involving lateral forces are covered on the second day.

The difference in toe and camber values are also of very small under lateral force application.
