Regular forces on long bones induce a bending moment and a tensile force. Failure is most likely to initiate in tension.Radin, Practical Biomechanics for the Orthopaedic Surgeon.
22
Spiral fractures result from bone which fails in shear.
Functional Adaptation of Bone
Bone remodeling occurs throughout life through a regulated process of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption coupled to osteoblast-mediated new bone formation
The Bone Bank:
Balance (BMD), Deposits (Formation), and Withdrawals (Resorption)

Osteoclasts dissolve mineral & matrix.
Osteoblasts lay down collagen & minerals.
Remodeling cycle takes ~ 100 days.

Wolf (1892):The shape of bone is determined only by the static stressing
(ISOSTATICS)...Only static usefulness and necessity or static superfluity determine
the existence and location of every bony element and consequently of the overall shape of the bone .
Wolf Law of Functional Adaptation

Trabecular bone structure of the femoral neck follows the principal stress trajectories at that location, as discovered byWolff in the 1800's.
