Is this a supporting wall?

[ajs86]

If an interior block porch (50's) has plasterboard between it and the trimmer from stair case. it is not supporting? No weight on a block when I knocked one out.

 

[blup]

The trimmer has to be supported somewhere

 

[^woody^]

A trimmer is a support.

Somewhere

 

[blup]

A trimmer supports but has to be supported in turn

 

[^woody^]

The trimmer supports also need supporting.

 

[Odds]

But who watches the watchers while the support is supporting the supports?

Ah, the old Trimmer Paradox.
