What are roof trusses?

A roof truss is a triangular structure used to distribute weight evenly and support heavy loads. They are what give roofs the shape that they have, and they come in many different styles.

What are floor trusses?

Floor trusses are engineered 'joists' made of readily available 2×6 or 2×4 lumber. The top and bottom chords are connected with diagonal and vertical components that form load-bearing triangles. All joints are fastened on both sides with steel connector plates.

Custom Designed Roof and Floor Trusses

Custom Truss can provide trusses for any Addition or Renovation no matter how simple or complex. Our designers are used to working directly with homeowners, contractors and architects to custom design floors and roofs that most easily tie into your existing roof. Even on a small addition it's usually easier to order a few trusses and set those than to frame the roof by hand. No matter how well designed the original and new trusses are there will always be a small amount of hand framing required. How a new roof ties into an old roof will obviously depend on the existing structure and the planned addition. In fact, "tying in" is often not even covered on an addition plan, being left to the framers' discretion. In order to ensure the best possible match with your existing structure, Custom Truss recommends optional field measurements by one of our trained employees.
