Our Steps to Putting Up a Truss Roof

after all plans were drawn up we put up scaffolding on the inside of the building




once scaffolding was up we measured and cut wall plates we tech screwed it from the top plate of the metal stud wall up into the wall plate. Then marked it out for all trusses.









then started to erect the the truss roof first starting at the front of the house with the truncated truss, and screwed that down with triple grips (we triple griped all trusses). after truncated was up we put our jack truss in, then the two hip truss went up, after those were screwed down we put all creeper trusses in.





then did all above instruction on the other side.



after both sides were down we made a start on the standard trusses starting with the two ends then doing all the rest. the three in the middle were boot bracketed to the truncated truss.





now that all truss were up we were able to make a start on fascia. so we measured out, put a nail and ran a sting line around the house. we squared the line down cut them off and put on fascia clips. once fascia clips were screwed on we cut our fascia and slaped that on. then when all fascia was on we put internal and external corners on.














valleys were next in line, we cut a 45 degree at the end of all valley board and put in our last saddle screwed them all down.








then battened the roof out.











job well done.
