If not, perhaps wire can be used to form X-bracing. As long as the horizontal beams are strong enough, wire bracing can be even preferred for all the sides, because they are fairly light weight.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486582040137_28106"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486582040137_28107">Perhaps the diagonals behind the scrim are located 3' behind the scrim, to allow a very shallow acting space, but provide the protection against shear forces <br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486582040137_29454"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486582040137_29455">And to make it clear for those who may not be familiar with engineering terms; "Shear" refers to side loads.
