Four-Sided Roof Truss System

The double joist four-sided roof truss system provides maximum support and stability for your roofing needs. This system is designed to distribute weight evenly, reducing stress on individual components and extending the lifespan of your roof. Suitable for a variety of architectural styles, this truss system ensures that your roof remains secure and resilient under various weather conditions, offering both practical benefits and long-lasting durability.

Node 1: Attaching Rafters to the Ridge (Valley)

This node is technologically advanced and quick to install, utilizing Simpson LSSUI brackets that allow for an adjustable angle of the lower shelf and can pivot up to 45 degrees. This flexibility is crucial for fitting the complex angles of a four-sided roof.

Materials and Components:

  1. Wooden I-beam rafters
  2. Paired I-beam beam (ridge; valley)
  3. OSB-3/plywood insert
  4. Simpson LSSUI bracket
  5. Screws/nails
  6. Structural angle 135 degrees

Materials and Components:

  1. Wooden I-beam rafters
  2. Paired I-beam beam (ridge/valley)
  3. OSB-3/plywood/board insert
  4. Dowels
  5. Structural angle 135 degrees
  6. Galvanized nails/screws

Node 2: Attaching Rafters to the Ridge/Valley with Dowels

An economical and widely used method, where dowels pass through inserts made of plywood/OSB to connect rafter legs to the ridge/valley, enhancing structural cohesion and stability.

Node 3: Roof Opening (Dormer Window)

This node resolves openings by interrupting one or more rafter legs. For wide openings, such as for a dormer, the adjacent rafter legs are doubled, framed by block beams above and below the opening to ensure structural integrity and support.

Materials and Components:

  1. Wooden I-beam rafters
  2. Beam support
  3. Structural angle
  4. Block beams
  5. Plywood/OSB-3 inserts
