Method of constructing a truss assembly and supplementary truss for use in a truss assembly for building construction
Il:\gw\Interwovn\NRPortbl\DCC\GW\16768464_ .docx-6/04/2018 A method of constructing a supplementary truss for use in a truss assembly for building construction, the truss assembly having a main truss and one or more supplementary trusses that are hingedly connected to the main truss for swinging movement about a substantially vertical axis between a folded configuration in which the supplementary truss lies adjacent the face of the main truss and an erected configuration in which the supplementary truss extends transversely to said face, the method comprising the steps of: positioning on a jig table self securing hinges to define the substantially vertical swinging axis of the supplementary truss, the jig table having a plurality of fixtures for positioning the hinges and chord members of the truss in predetermined alignment; positioning fasteners on the jig table at predetermined locations for fixing the chord members together; and applying the chord members and a web extending between the chord members to the jig table for engagement with the hinges and the fasteners to form the supplementary truss. /a) \iz
