Truss assembly with alignment guides
A truss assembly (12) has a plurality of structural members joined by a truss joint. The truss joint includes first (16) and second (18) structural members and a pair of shear plates (22). Each shear plate (22) includes at least one shear tab (24) having a curved alignment guide (40) formed by an elongated slot with an open end. An end of the second structural member (18) has a locating hole (42) proximate its mounting bolt hole. The truss assembly further includes an alignment/drift pin (44) used to position the second structural member (18) with respect to the shear plates (22). The alignment/drift pin (44) is configured to be inserted into the locating hole (42) and then maneuverable into the alignment guide (40) to position the second structural member (18) so that mounting bolt holes in the shear plates (22) and a mounting bolt hole in the second structural member (18) align allowing insertion of a through bolt (30).
