What it is and how it is made.

What it is
Factory-assembled timber roof trusses with engineered connector plates, from standard pitched profiles to girders, hips, valleys and special shapes.
Where it is used
Residential roofs of every common form, plus light commercial roofs within the span and loading limits confirmed per project.
Designed
Truss layout, profiles, member sizes and bracing come from the architectural roof plan and the applicable loads, coordinated with the wall frames beneath.
Manufactured
Members are precision cut, assembled in jigs and pressed. Each truss is inspected against its drawing and marked with its reference.
Packed and delivered
Trusses are stacked and strapped by roof zone and lifting sequence, with the layout and installation drawings included in the delivery.
Connects to
Bearing points, tie-downs, girder connections and bracing are documented against the wall frames so the roof lands where the structure expects it.
