On basis of space-statistical data analysis on elements of bedding of folded structures that was performed for regions of the Far East, Baikal mountain area, Mountain Altai, Pamirs and Southern Tyan-Shan in period 1960-2000 years as well as on basis of summary of literary materials on the rest of the world, the author had determined the unknown before regularity of changing structure plans in folded areas that is interrelated with the global level tectonic rearrangements. That rearrangements are caused by changes of position of Earth’s axis of rotation. In folded areas, they appear by the tendency of rotation of folded structures spreadings clockwise with average angular velocity equal to 0.3° per a million years.
