Assembling Bridge Trusses

Assembling Bridge Trusses

Trim the bridge trusses at the intersection of the top and bottom chords as shown below in Figure 7.58.

Figure 7.58: Bridge truss before and after trimming

Note

Note: The trim location is 34mm from the end of the bottom chord. Once the heel is trimmed, a TBJ45 bridge bracket is fitted to connect the truss to a beam or girder truss. Note that if a TBJ-45 bracket is required, the top chord will need to be manually boxed to enable the bracket to be fixed on the open face. Refer to ENDUROTRUSS Roofing System Installation Manual#7.8.1BoxedTieDowns for details.
