Design of Traditionally Constructed Roof Trusses
Traditional roof truss construction accounts for approximately sixty per cent of the market for house roof trusses and thus forms the largest single market for S A Pine structural timber. There is some concern that traditional trusses designed according to the proposed National Building Regulations (NBR) are too conservative. A single traditionally constructed six-bay Howe truss is analyzed and designed using different assumptions. Joint stiffnesses are varied and the effect of joint eccentricity is mentioned. The permissible stress design method is compared with an ultimate limit state design method. Some information regarding traditional joints (constructed with four nails and one 10 mm bolt) is also given.
