The highest point of the timber truss is called the apex or peak(4) and the continuation of the upper bar after the lower bar is called the overhang (5). Planks which are located between the upper and lower chords, forms a webbing. The timber that limits the truss from above forms the top chord (2), while the timber that is used for the tie beam is called a bottom chord (3). The Joints that carry the load on the supports are called the support joints. These joints are connected with metal plates (6). Roof trusses consist of timber planks where the connection points are arranged to form an interconnected triangular system that holds the load. Trusses are built on centuries-old and proven geometry principles, which, combined with modern engineering, provide a flexible, practical roof structure or floor solution that saves construction costs and installation time.
Trusses are made of high-quality C24 timber interconnected with special steel plates (Gang-Nail), resulting in an extremely durable construction.
Timber trusses are prefabricated constructions that symmetrically cover the building from one end to the other and are custom made for each project. In this article, you will learn all about timber trusses – the types of trusses, the benefits of a truss, the cost of the project, and the right way to order timber trusses.
