Hip-End Truss Systems

Back to Trussed Rafter Page

A Hip-End system offers a simple wall solution at the expense of a more complex roof structure, giving a more decorative finish to the end of a building. Hip-End systems can be designed in many ways to suit individual requirements, however the most common method is the 'Flying Rafter/Infill Hip'. This is shown opposite.

This is an example of an 'Infill' Hip-End, which basically is constructed totally from loose-infill on site. This system basically caters for the smaller Hip-End roof. A. C. Roof Trusses provides all loose-infill for all such applications.
