Here's why:

* Newtons (N) are the standard unit for measuring force in the International System of Units (SI).

* Force is a push or pull that can cause an object to accelerate or change its shape.

In the context of a building, the pushes and pulls could be caused by:

* Wind: The force of wind pushing against the building's exterior.

* Gravity: The force of gravity pulling the building downwards.

* Earthquakes: The shaking of the ground, which can exert a force on the building's foundation.

* Other structures: Adjacent buildings may push or pull on the building.
