Wood pole barn trusses.

Trusses 2 o c trusses can also be set 4 o c for steeper roof pitch appeal but eliminating attic storage and flooring building 1 and building 2 building 3 for similar attic area pics. Steel trusses offer increased strength faster installation and a longer life compared to wood frame pole barn trusses. Each do it yourself pole barn kit sold by diy pole barns includes wood pole barn trusses ranging anywhere from 12 feet to 40 feet wide depending on the structure. Large span trusses require multiple pickup points using a spreader bar on the crane.

Their programs will allow for trusses to be placed on 12 foot or even 16 foot centers and their engineers will place their engineer s seal on the drawings to verify. Get the strength of steel with the ease of building with wood. They are spaced every four feet. I came from the prefabricated wood roof truss industry having spent nearly two decades either having built them myself been a designer managing or owning roof truss manufacturing plants.

We can help you design pole barns to meet so many needs we supply a wide. Dear pole barn guru. I am frequently asked questions regarding our wood trusses. Trusses from 8 to 80 clear spans.

We provide angle iron steel trusses in gable lean to and header styles. Attic trusses are great for living space or storage space. Our pole barn trusses are engineered to be placed 4 on center. Beware of kits that space their pole barn trusses more than 4 on center.

For example you might use a 35 spreader bar on a 70 span truss. The manufacturers of the steel roof truss plates also referred to as gussets or gang nails provide the engineering design for pre fabricated wood trusses.

Pre welded purlin cups predrilled bolt holes and included mounting hardware for fast easy installation.
