### Individual Voids - Create individual voids (fig. 22-35). Individual voids result from spaces formed by a series of strong objects - That prevent collapse into that particular area and may be found in any type of collapse. - Their presence is more difficult to locate than other types of voids, since they occur at random, depending on the layout - of partitions, furniture, and items such as refrigerators, washing machines, and display cases that can hold up - the floor above, which often remains intact. It may - be possible to crawl in or out of the space between floors if the void is large enough. - Locating the victims of pancake collapses is often somewhat simpler than in other cases, since the floors usually maintain their - physical relationship to each other, and the victims aren't as likely to be thrown to a side or end as they - would if the floor were to incline.
