When you typeset some polyphonic music on a single staff, especially when you have different dotted note heads, you sometimes meet collision between note heads, and don't want them to merge automatically. Using \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #X.Y allows you to separate these colliding note heads, inserting the appropriate amount of blank space (X.Y) between them.
