DDL CHANGES IN A REPLICATED ENVIRONMENT

We have just set up advanced replication in our lab (bi-directional) And it seems to be working .
I am confused by how replication should handle ddl changes Does replication have to be turned off before executing ddl changes
(such as add column , drop column rename table etc)

I guess I don't understand why ddl changes won't break replication.

thanks
Barry
