:mrdocs:

Create a default‐constructed object of (template parameter) `ELEMENT_TYPE` at the specified `address`. If `ELEMENT_TYPE` supports `bslma`‐style allocation, this allocator passes itself to the extended default constructor. If the constructor throws, the memory at `address` is left in an unspecified state. The behavior is undefined unless `address` refers to a block of sufficient size and properly aligned for objects of `ELEMENT_TYPE`.
