As every person called up made exactly the same appearance he had done in the world, it gave me melancholy reflections to observe how much the race of human kind was degenerated among us within these hundred years past; how the pox, under all its consequences and denominations had altered every lineament of an English countenance; shortened the size of bodies,

The resulting mezzanine can be braced or

EBB grants are available for houses built before 1979 that include a crawl space with
unbraced cripple walls, low walls between the foundation and first floor, and are not bolted to the foundation.
If the opening is small compared to the
unbraced surface area of the structure free to deform out-of-plane, then the change in stiffness can be considered negligible (here, the definition of "small" is highly subjective upon the allowable change in dynamic response).
They can also reduce strain on the ACL for internal torques applied to the tibia up to 9 Nm in a non-weight-bearing condition when compared to an
unbraced knee, but did not reduce strain values on the ACL when the knee was subjected to external torques (9 Nm) or varus-valgus moments (10 Nm) in weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing conditions (6,7).
So they will be unprepared,
unbraced, when you go in sharp and sudden to get'em.
Later, they presented the results concerning the elastic in-plane stability and second-order behavior of
unbraced single-bay pitched-roof steel frames and proposed a methodology to design this type of commonly used structure.
