| Some buildings won't stand without knee braces, some do quite well. The difference is in the attachment of the truss to the posts. Some that stand well without braces have a heel on the truss that's a foot or two tall nestled into a slot in the posts and anchored with 1/2" or 3/4" bolts. Some that need braces use a truss heel that's a single 2x6 high and attach it to the posts with 20p spikes while it sets on a nailed on ledge. Braces might not be enough for that construction.
