Wood roof trusses provide several benefits for building design such as additional aesthetic appeal, freedom for complex roof styles, reduced construction time since they are ready for installation, and less waste. While they may cost more initially, wood trusses save on construction time since they do not require as much expertise to install as traditional framing. Computer software is used to design the trusses to be sustainable, durable, and use minimal wood.

1. WOOD ROOF TRUSSES:
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY IN BUILDING DESIGN

2. ENGINEERED WOOD TRUSS PRODUCTS
IN BUILDING DESIGN

3. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF BENEFITS ASSOCIATED
WITH WOOD TRUSS PRODUCTS IN BUILDING DESIGN.

4. WOOD TRUSSES PROVIDE ADDITIONAL AESTHETIC APPEAL
AND MORE FREEDOM FOR DIFFERENT,
COMPLEX ROOFING STYLES.

5. WOOD TRUSSES DO COST A BIT MORE,
BUT THEY SAVE ON CONSTRUCTION TIME AND
DO NOT QUITE AS MUCH EXPERTISE TO INSTALL PROPERLY.

6. TRADITIONAL FRAMING METHODS TAKE A LOT LONGER
THAN WOOD TRUSSES BECAUSE
OF THEIR SHEER EFFICIENCY.

7. WOOD IS A SUSTAINABLE MATERIAL FOR CONSTRUCTION
AND EXTENSIVE RESEARCH HAS GONE INTO MAKING
THESE TRUSSES LAST LONGER AND USE A MINIMAL
AMOUNT OF WOOD WHEN THEY ARE MANUFACTURED.

8. WOOD TRUSSES ARE READY TO INSTALL UPON DELIVERY.

9. ENGINEERED ROOF TRUSSES SIGNIFICANTLY
REDUCE CONSTRUCTION TIME AND DO NOT CONTRIBUTE
TO ON-SITE WASTE IN ANY SIGNIFICANT WAY.

10. THE DESIGN VALUES OF LUMBER ARE DETERMINED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE WOOD DESIGN STANDARDS.

11. COMPUTER SOFTWARE IS USED TO FACILITATE THE DESIGN
OF TRUSS MEMBERS AND CONNECTIONS,
PRODUCING AN OVERALL DESIGN DRAWING
WITH ALL OF THE NECESSARY INFORMATION.

12. THE TRUSS DESIGNS THAT ARE CREATED WITH COMPUTERS
ARE TRANSLATED INTO INSTRUCTIONS FOR
CONSTRUCTION CREWS. EACH PIECE OF LUMBER IS
THOROUGHLY INSPECTED FOR STRENGTH AND SUITABILITY.
