The mechanism that stop the displacement of the top of the construction
The simplest description of the patent I can do is that ... if we screw (with the mechanism) the upper edges of a wall with foundation ground, it will withstand larger lateral overturning forces than another wall that simply rests on on the ground. If we stop the primary torque of the wall overturning by my method (on each wall of the structure) we have stopped the displacement of the structure. By controlling the displacement of the structure, you also control the tensions ... responsible for the inelastic deformations of the structure that lead to the blatant failure.
