Triangular Trusses
Back to Trussed Rafter
Page
A trussed rafter is an engineered framework
consisting of structural members forming triangles. The framework derives its
inherent strength from this triangulation.They provide a flexible method of
framing many required roof profiles.
However, due to the commercial limits of available
timber sections, transport limitations for length and height, and manufacturing
limitations of the pressing machinery, there are restrictions on the physical
dimensions of the the trussed rafter. At A. C. Roof Trusses we can manufacture
trussed rafters upto an impressive 17.5m overall truss length, and a height of
4.5m. It is possible to manufacture trussed rafters outside this range by
manufacturing the truss in two or more sections and site-assembled to the
required profile.
We would recommend that you contact one of our
experienced designers as early as possible regarding the design of your roof.
Our designers will work with you to reach the ideal solution. |
